Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson turned to a familiar source when he picked a director for the government's $700 billion bailout program: his former Wall Street firm, Goldman Sachs.
Neel Kashkari, a former Goldman executive who has worked with Paulson at the department since July 2006, was chosen Monday as the interim head of the government's unprecedented effort to unclog the credit markets.
Kashkari, who was a vice president in Goldman's San Francisco office before joining the department, is one of four former executives from the firm now working feverishly to resolve the financial crisis.
