Timothy Geithner: Post-Crash

--------------

Timothy Geithner spent 23 years in government, the last several as president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and secretary of the Treasury during and after the worst financial crisis in 75 years. He's now beginning a new phase of life, having recently become president of Warburg Pincus, a private-equity firm.Geithner is also drawing lessons for the nation, for other leaders and for today's youth-from what he considers the successful effort that he and others led to prevent a repeat of the Great Depression. He calls himself 'a really big optimist' about America, but says he worries that the nation's dysfunctional system puts its future at risk.
