BY CAROL MARBIN MILLER
Florida immigrant advocates looking for possible clues to the direction
President Barack Obama will take his new administration may need to
look no further than the appointment this week of a woman whose name is
familiar to virtually all immigration advocates and attorneys in Miami:
Esther Olavarria.
The
lawyer and policy wonk held jobs with the Florida Immigration Advocacy
Center, the Haitian Refugee Center, and Legal Services of Greater Miami
before moving to a bigger stage in Washington, D.C.
