  Kim Ng | Table of Contents | LA Magazine
Ng, who is 36, is aware that some people think that rather than hurting, race and gender have helped, pushing her image from good—no one questions her capabilities—to great because the sport needs to show a progressive side.
Ng believes another White Sox official, senior vice president Jack Gould, was not as easily convinced: “I could tell he was skeptical about me, as a woman, from the questions he asked.” Once they worked together, Ng says, she tried to see where their strengths were complementary.
Ng was “the glue of the baseball operation.” He signed her to a multiyear contract after the season’s end in October.

 Los Angeles Dodgers, Major League Baseball - CBS SportsLine.com
Ng, the Dodgers' vice president and assistant general manager, and Roy Smith, vice president of player development, are here as co-interim GMs this week in the aftermath of Paul DePodesta's firing, laying the groundwork for what Los Angeles hopes is a winter of adding a key bat or two.
Yankees GM Brian Cashman, who employed Ng as his assistant from 1998-2001 because he was highly impressed with her knowledge of waiver rules and other technicalities, said she did a "tremendous job" with the Yankees and he figures she has only grown since moving on to the Dodgers in 2002.
Ng (pronounced, "Eng"), speaking between meetings scheduled here Tuesday afternoon, was uncomfortable discussing either her candidacy for the Dodgers job or her prospect of becoming the first woman GM in the game's history.

Born in Ulchin, North Kyongsang Province, in 1946, Kim Myo¢¨ng-in graduated in 1969 from the Department of Korean Language and Literature of Korea University where he continued to study, receiving his Ph.D. in 1985.

Continuing a tradition initiated in the 1960s by such poets as Kim Su-yo¢¨ng, he rejected the effete abstractions of the Symbolist or Imagist schools in favour of a poetry closely connected to the painful realities of daily life.

 Baseball Toaster: Dodger Thoughts : Kim Ng Interviewed on Baseball Prospectus   (Site not responding. Last check: )
This interview of Kim Ng on BP's premium service would have been interesting even before the Bill Singer incident, which is good, because the interview by Jonah Keri was conducted before the Bill Singer incident and does not reference the Bill Singer incident.
Ng tells Keri that there are different ways to build a club and "you can't go in there and tear a team apart." Nevertheless, you can see from the quote below that the condition of the Dodger middle infield must conflict Ng as it does many of the team's fans.
If, by her answer, Ng is telling us that she is not worried about that risk, that she's going to support drafting the best player regardless of age, then I'd like to know why.
