Is Timothy Geithner Jewish?

Yes. Timothy Geithner, selected by Barack Obama to be secretary of the treasury, is a Jew.

Geithner is now president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Peter F. Geithner of Larchmont, N.Y. He is married to Carole M. Sonnenfeld and has two children. The Rev. Thomas Keehn, a United Church of Christ minister, officiated at his wedding.

All three men, Geithner, Lawrence Summers and Paul Volcker who had been under consideration by President-Elect Barack Obama for the Secretary of the Treasury post in his administration, are Jews.

Former Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers is a Jew. In 2002 he wrote of himself, "I am Jewish, identified but hardly devout."

Summers now is likely to be named as an economic adviser to Obama. He then may succeed Ben Bernanke in 2010 as Chairman of the Federal Reserve.

Former Federal Reserve Chairman Paul Volcker is a Jew. He is a native son of Teaneck New Jersey and a graduate of Teaneck High School. His father was the township's first Municipal manager.

Volcker was appointed Chairman of the Federal Reserve in August 1979 by President Jimmy Carter and reappointed in 1983 by President Ronald Reagan.
