The Securities Law Prof Blog has always been one of my favorite blogs because of its comprehensive coverage of an area of the law that I love.  A few weeks ago, I spoke with Barbara Black at the Ohio Securities Conference, an event at which we were both presenting.  She mentioned that she had decided to step away from the Blog to concentrate on her list of numerous other projects.  After contacting Paul Caron, I now find myself in the editor's chair.

Over the months to come, I look forward to building the Blog into a comprehensive resource for those interested in securities regulation.  Thanks to Barbara for her work on the Blog and her willingness to be a friend and a mentor.  Thanks to Paul for the opportunity to take the lead on the Blog.  Stay tuned for what is to come!
