Hope Hicks will assume the role of White House communications director .

Information was accepted on Tuesday, Sep 12, 2017 that Hope Hicks was named White House communications director.

Hope Hicks became full time media director, replacing Anthony Scaramucci, who was fired in July, only 10 working days.

She initially hesitated to accept the position when it was suggested for her final month, and it was time for her to emphasize that the "interim" was originally added to her title.

Hope Hicks served as Trump’s director of strategic communications.

More info about Hope Hicks:

She previously served as the press secretary and early communications director for Trump's 2016 campaign, as well as the national press secretary for his presidential transition team. In January 2017, Hicks was included on the Forbes 30 Under 30 list.

On August 16, 2017, she was made the interim White House Communications Director (the last Director having been Anthony Scaramucci). Politico labelled her the "Untouchable Hope Hicks," as she was considered one of the few White House officials whose job was safe, and she was one of only two White House communications officials who Scaramucci had announced were definitely staying when he was first hired.

Hope Charlotte Hicks was born on October 21, 1988.

She and her sister lived above a dive bar in Greenwich, but she split her time between that apartment and a Trump-owned apartment in Manhattan, until Trump was elected and she moved to Washington, D.C. Her father is managing director of the Glover Park Group.
