Henry Paulson is a former aide to Richard Nixon and former chief executive of Goldman Sachs. A devout Christian Scientist, he neither drinks nor smokes. A committed environmentalist, he collects live snakes, is an avid fly fisherman and birdwatcher. The new endangered species, quipped Williams, is "the American economy."
