(CNN) President-elect Joe Biden has tapped Louisa Terrell, a long-time aide and Capitol Hill veteran, as his director of legislative affairs -- a role that means she'll be in charge of shepherding Biden's agenda through what could be a divided Congress. She was executive director of the Biden Foundation. Her selection was one of four White House staffing announcements Biden's transition team made Friday, bringing back into the fold several former Obama administration hands who had previously worked closely with Biden. Biden has tapped Cathy Russell as the director of the White House Office of Presidential Personnel, an office that recruits and vets potential choices for about 4,000 jobs that presidents fill in departments and agencies throughout the executive branch. Russell was chief of staff to Jill Biden during Obama's first term in office.
