Geithner to Write Book on U.S. Response to Financial Crisis

Timothy F. Geithner, who ended his term as Treasury secretary in January, is planning to write a book about the U.S. response to the 2008 financial crisis, according to a person familiar with his plans.

Geithner, 51, will write about his decision-making role at the Treasury the last four years and as president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York from 2003 to 2009, said the person, who asked not to be identified because Geithner has yet to meet with publishers.
