Former Fannie Mae CEO Lands in Goldman Investor Crosshairs

The past is coming back to haunt former Fannie Mae chief executive James A. Johnson.

Goldman Sachs investors next month will decide whether to re-elect board member Johnson, who ran Fannie from 1991 to 1998. He is facing vocal opposition from a large mutual fund investor, which has cited Johnson's mortgage industry past as part of what it calls his presence "at the center of several egregious corporate governance debacles."
