Lewent, Ex Merck CFO, To Glaxo's Board; Leaving Dell Board

Frankly, joining Glaxo is a bigger deal than stepping down from Dell -- but here is just a bit from today's Philly paper item:

. . . .Ms. Lewent, the former executive vice president and chief financial officer of Merck & Co., Inc., was chair of the finance committee and also served on the audit committee of the Dell Board. She has been a member of the board since May 2001.

Ms. Lewent recently joined the board of Glaxo Smith Kline [March 2,2011]. In addition, she is a director of Motorola Solutions, Inc. and Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc. She is also a trustee and the chairperson of the audit committee of the Rockefeller family trust, a life member of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Corporation and a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. . . .

And so it goes.
