Joshua Steiner
Joshua L. Steiner is a private investor and a senior adviser at Bloomberg LP., where he was previously Head of Industry Verticals.[1] During his tenure at Bloomberg, Steiner oversaw the company's non-financial information businesses, venture capital fund, and corporate development and strategy teams. He also led company-wide initiatives in data privacy, emerging markets growth, and market liberalization.[2]
In 2008, during President Obama's transition into office, Joshua Steiner served as an adviser to the Obama administration regarding economy policy.[3]
Previously he was a Managing Director at Lazard Frères & Co. and former Chief of Staff of the U.S. Treasury Department in the Clinton administration.[4][5]
Department of Treasury
While Steiner was Chief of Staff of the U.S. Treasury Department in the Clinton Administration, he came into national news as a result of the Whitewater investigations where he testified before Congress on the contacts between the Treasury and the Clinton White House.[6] He testified before the Senate Banking Committee on August 2, 1994 claiming that he had made "misrepresentations" in his own diary.[7] He was quickly branded as "the kid who lied to his own diary" as his testimony was largely seen as an attempt to cover for the Clinton White House.[8]
Other affiliations
He is a trustee of Yale University[9] and serves on the board of the International Rescue Committee [10] and the Agora Institute at Johns Hopkins University. He is an honorary trustee of the New York Public Library, where he was previously the vice chair of the board.[5][11]
