Baltimore Mayor's Chief Of Staff Resigning

BALTIMORE (AP) -- The chief of staff for Baltimore's mayor will be leaving her post.

Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake announced Monday that Sophie Dagenais plans to depart March 21. The mayor says the search for a new chief of staff is under way.

Dagenais left law firm Ballard Spahr LLP to help manage the transition as Rawlings-Blake took office after Sheila Dixon stepped down as part of a corruption case plea deal. She says when she agreed to take on the job for a year, she never could have predicted how gratifying the experience would be.
