Mr. Hearty has been a member of the PRIM board since 1991, serving most recently as head of the investment committee. Mr. Hearty retired last year as managing director and head of public finance at Lehman Brothers.
Mr. Hearty said he hopes to develop the investment staff at PRIM and "continue the tremendous success we’ve had at PRIM over the last decade.”
