The Sun today reported on the high salaries of members of the executive chamber in the Paterson administration, noting that 62 of the 176 staffers in the executive chamber have a salary of at least $100,000.
Well, we have one to add outside the chamber that caught our eye: Drew Warshaw, the 27-year-old new chief of staff to Port Authority executive director Chris Ward, takes in $168,012 annually. The previous Port Authority director, Tony Shorris, didn’t have anyone with the title of chief of staff, but his “special executive assistant,” Andy Rachlin, took in $99,000 a year.
Mr. Warshaw served as an aide in the Spitzer administration, working with Rich Baum, secretary to the Governor.
