DECD deputy commissioner named Amistad guru

It was March 2011 when Gov. Dannel Malloy took to a lectern to introduce Christopher "Kip" Bergstrom, the former Stamford urban redevelopment director for the governor when he was mayor there, as the new head of Connecticut's Commission of Culture and Tourism. Soon after, the culture and tourism commission, in a Malloy agency reshuffle, became part of the state Department of Economic and Community Development, and Bergstrom became a $135,000-a-year deputy DECD commissioner.
