    Nomination for Deputy Administrator of the Small Business Administration

     August 10, 1993

        The President today announced his intention to nominate small
    business entrepreneur Cassandra Pulley Robinson as Deputy Administrator
    at the Small Business Administration.
        ``As someone who has started a business herself, Cassandra Robinson
    understands the challenges new business people face. I am confident she
    will do an excellent job assisting Erskine Bowles at the head of SBA as
    we work to better opportunities for small and growing businesses,'' the
    President said.

    Note: A biography of the nominee was made available by the Office of the
    Press Secretary.
