Following the money in banking, economics, and Washington

Welcome Heidi Moore

June 25, 2010: 4:12 PM ET

I will be on vacation the next two weeks. 

But wipe away your tears -- the Street Sweep never stops. Very capably filling in will be Heidi Moore, who describes herself this way:

Heidi N. Moore has been an independent financial journalist since 2009, with articles published in the Washington Post, New York Magazine, and the Financial Times and is a regular contributor to Slate's The Big Money.

Previously she was a reporter at the Wall Street Journal, where she was the lead writer for the paper's award-winning Deal Journal online and daily newspaper coverage during the height (and depths) of the world financial crisis.

Before that, she was U.S. Bureau Chief for Dow Jones-owned weekly newspaper Financial News and a senior writer covering Wall Street for The Deal magazine.

She is a 1998 graduate of Columbia University and a native New Yorker who wishes Foursquare would stop ruining all the good places to hang out. 

See you in two weeks.
