We give a new interpretation of Darboux transforms in the context of orthogonal polynomials and find conditions in or-der for any Darboux transform to yield a new set of orthogonal polynomials. We also discuss connections between Darboux trans-forms and factorization of linear differential operators which have orthogonal polynomial eigenfunctions.
