Christine Varney, a key player in the Obama administration’s efforts to shore up the nation’s antitrust enforcement efforts, is leaving the Department of Justice to join Cravath, Swaine & Moore, a source at the firm confirmed on Wednesday.
Varney took her post as assistant attorney general of the department’s antitrust division in April 2009, according to her DOJ profile. Prior to that, she spent a decade as an antitrust partner in the Washington, D.C., office of Hogan & Hartson (now Hogan Lovells), where she founded and led that firm’s internet practice group. Varney also served as a commissioner with the Federal Trade Commission from 1994 to 1997.
