Timothy Geithner in Silicon Valley

U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner came to Silicon Valley today to address The Commonwealth Club of California. Though I've worked at The Commonwealth Club for more than four years, this was the first time I traveled down to the Valley to catch one of our programs down there.

Today's event, which began at 1:00 pm Pacific time (probably not coincidentally, that's when the New York stock markets close) took place before a sold-out audience and about 40 members of the press.

In the photos below, Geithner (top) is viewed entering the Oshman Family JCC auditorium, where the event was held. Below, Geithner in discussion on stage with the moderator, Sequoia Capital's Michael Mortiz.
