Trump's commerce secretary distributed cult handiwork (6,7)

I believe the answer is:

howard lutnick

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'trump's commerce secretary' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.

'distributed cult handiwork' is the wordplay.
'distributed' is an anagram indicator.
'cult'+'handiwork'='culthandiwork'
'culthandiwork' with letters rearranged gives 'HOWARD LUTNICK'.

Can you help me to learn more?
