Madoff Had Affair With Ex-Hadassah CFO, Her Book Says

By David Voreacos

Aug. 13 (Bloomberg) -- An accountant who has publicly blamed imprisoned con man Bernard Madoff for stealing her family’s savings has written a book that will disclose a secret she previously withheld -- they once had an extramarital affair.

Sheryl Weinstein’s account, “Madoff’s Other Secret: Love, Money, Bernie, and Me,” will be published Aug. 25 by St. Martin’s Press. Amazon.com Inc. and Barnes & Noble Inc. are accepting advance orders through Web site listings that disclose no details about the relationship and say that the author is “to be announced.” The author is Weinstein, said John Murphy, a spokesman for New York-based St. Martin’s.

Weinstein, 60, has denounced Madoff publicly at least four times this year, including at the June 29 court hearing where he was sentenced to 150 years in federal prison for masterminding the largest Ponzi scheme in history. Weinstein told the judge she met Madoff 21 years ago when she was chief financial officer at Hadassah, the Women’s Zionist Organization of America Inc.

“I now view that day as perhaps the unluckiest day of my life because of the many events set into motion that would eventually have the most profound and devastating effect on me, my husband, my child, my parents, my in-laws and all of those who depended on us,” Weinstein said at the New York hearing.

In addition to details of the affair, the hardcover book will include photographs and intimate descriptions of Madoff, Murphy said. He declined to provide an advance copy of the book, which he said was “a fast read’ and was ghostwritten. The cover price of the 224-page book is $23.99, according to Amazon.com.

So he was a Zionist to boot?

“Madoff’s Other Secret: Love, Money, Bernie, and Me,”

This sounds like either a Barney Goes Wild cartoon, a p0rn flick, or a really low budget comedy with the likes of Joey Tribbiani

So he was a Zionist to boot?

If you call ripping off Zionist and other Jewish charities being a Zionist, sure.

I think he's persona non grata at those charities these days.....

Actually, I only posted this thing because it has the allure of an Affair. Can't resist a story with some sex-sizzle to it. Even if the tell-all details aren't there :crying:
