The memo was written by Lant Pritchett, though Summers signed it and
took the public heat for it. Not, of course, that it damaged his
career any. When I did my impromptu interview with him, I didn't want
to give him an out by acknowledging the ghost authorship.
Gratuitous ad hominem note: the way Summers ogles women gives lust a bad name.
