Jana Hymowitz, an executive compensation partner at Cravath, Swaine & Moore, has moved over to Simpson, Thacher & Bartlett, the firm said Tuesday. She is the latest of four new partner hires the firm has made in the last week. Those hires came from three other Big Law firms (and one investment firm) and occurred in four different cities.
In addition to Hymowitz in New York, Simpson also hired private funds partner Anat Holtzman from global funds manager Carlyle in Washington, D.C.; Fern Han, a finance partner specializing in project, energy and infrastructure projects from White & Case in Houston; and John Ilardo, a banking and credit partner, from Kirkland & Ellis in Boston. All four partner hires were announced in the last week.
