A bombshell revelation from Jeffrey Epstein's emails has brought former US Treasury Secretary Larry Summers under intense scrutiny. The emails, exchanged between 2018 and 2019, suggest Summers' romantic pursuit of a Harvard economist, Keyu Jin. This scandal has also sparked a controversy over Summers' long-standing marriage to Elisa New, a Harvard English professor and TV show host. Elisa New, a renowned Powell M. Cabot Professor of American Literature, is well-known for hosting PBS series Poetry in America. Before marrying Summers in 2005, she was married to Fred David Levine, with whom she had three daughters: Yael, Orli, and Maya. The couple has six children together, with Summers bringing his three children (twin daughters Pamela and Ruth, and son Harry) from his previous marriage. They have been raising their children in Brookline, Massachusetts. The Epstein emails have also revealed a shocking connection between Summers and his wife. Elisa New received $500,000 for her non-profit from Epstein, and the couple exchanged emails discussing literature and life. The scandal has led to Summers stepping away from public life, with him acknowledging his 'deep shame' and taking full responsibility for his actions. This article delves into the life of Elisa New and the complexities of the Summers family amidst the Epstein scandal fallout.
