Timothy Franz Geithner is the 75th and current United States Secretary of the
Treasury, serving under President Barack Obama. He has studied Chinese and
Japanese.
Geithner was born in Brooklyn, New York.
He spent most of his childhood living
outside the United States, including
present-day Zimbabwe, Zambia, India and
Thailand where he completed high school at
International School Bangkok. He attended Camp Becket-in-the-Berkshires-for-boys,
a summer camp located in western Massachusetts. He then attended Dartmouth
College, graduating with a B.A. in government and Asian studies in 1983. He earned
an M.A. in international economics and East Asian studies from Johns Hopkins
University's School of Advanced International Studies in 1985.
Geithner, in written comments to the Senate Finance Committee, states that the
new administration believes Beijing is "manipulating" its currency and that the
Obama administration will act "aggressively" using "all the diplomatic avenues" to
change China's currency practices.
Geithner met with Chinese Foreign Minister Yang Jiechi shortly after he assumed his
role as Secretary of the Treasury. Geithner told Yang that the U.S. attaches great
importance to its relations with China and that U.S.-China cooperation was essential
in order for the world economy to fully recover.
