My Take
Timothy Geithner is, in my view, one of the more quietly consequential figures of his generation. Brooklyn-born and Dartmouth-educated, he ran the New York Federal Reserve and then served as Treasury Secretary under Obama through the worst of the 2008 financial crisis. That is not a job for the faint-hearted; steering the global economy back from the edge demands nerve few possess. I have a soft spot for technocrats who absorb enormous blame without much public glory, and Geithner fits that mold exactly. Whatever one thinks of his decisions, the calm competence he brought to a moment of genuine panic deserves serious respect.
