Who Is Silda Spitzer?
First Lady Of New York Born In North Carolina
New York Governor Eliot Spitzer and his wife, Silda Wall Spitzer married in 1987. The couple has three teenage daughters.
Silda Spitzer is a native of North Carolina. According to the New York Governor’s office Web site, she is the founder and chair of Children for Children a not-for-profit organization that creates opportunities for young people especially in under-resourced areas of New York City.
Spitzer has a law degree from Harvard Law School and a Bachelor of Arts degree from Meredith College in North Carolina. She began her legal career with Skadden Arps Slate Meagher & Flom, specializing in mergers, acquisitions and corporate finance. She served on the New York Blue Ribbon Commission on Youth Leadership as well as the board of The Children's Museum of Manhattan from 1995 until January 1999.
One of her last known interviews was with Domino magazine, which bills itself as "The guide to living with style." Spitzer talks about efforts to "green" the governor’s mansion in Albany. Her interview is in the March edition of the magazine.
Did she know hubby had been using high priced hookers for years when he stood her up as a prop at his presser or did she think it was just once? and only to find out since from the news media?
The kid on the right looks like Elliot in a skirt and wig lol. Don’t suppose he wants some sleazy political hack picking her out of an online catalogue. “Kristen” has a father too you know.
Wow, all it takes is a quick read of about half a dozen posts here, and I’ve gone from having sympathy for her to wondering whether any of it matters to her at all.
If she has urged him not to quit, I am having less sympathy for her. The children are another matter entirely.
Appearances matter, they have 3 kids, nitwit. Theres plenty of time for her to set her lawyers on him and take half of everything he owns. Whats your hurry?
she was married for 29 days
So her and her three kids had to take it in the name of modern day feminism as a strong educated woman.
OK
What appearances? Circle the wagons to protect the family assets?
Nice lesson for the girls, no doubt; they will make much better courtesans for the lesson.
“The kid on the right..”! I thought exactly the same thing! Mirror image!

So you listen to Howard Stern too, eh? |
As I recall, Mrs. Craig and Mrs. Vitter both stood beside their husbands during press conferences.
I don’t consider it bad for a woman to stand by her husband and try to save her marriage, nor for a husband to stand by his wife. Marriages are complicated.
Being a teenager is traumatic enough without dad putting you through this.
God bless them.
I heard on Fox today that he’d requested “unsafe” sex from the prostitute and that she didn’t want that. He really thinks a lot of his wife and kids.
I agree. It just really ticks me off that pricks like Spitzer treat women like that like dirt and get away with it when there are men in flyover country (a widower like me) that have lost the woman they loved and are looking for another woman of the same caliber.
Exactly. Apparently a fight to hold on wouldn’t be much of a bruise to her ego.
She can “stand by him” without showing up at the press conference and posing as a human shield to protect her lousy spouse from the press.
What’s the date and what’s the date she met Eliot the Mess?
No, I don’t get Howard here or have a Sirius at work. Did Howard say that? This really sucks knowing that he and I think alike. That is really scary...
This just broke, what is the hurry? Why the rush to judgement?
The longer he stonewalls, the more that comes out, and eventually she leaves with the kids. For Gods sake, McGreeveys wife stood up there weeks later smiling her butt off, and then ended up suing his pants off (excuse the pun). Time will serve us well.
Lacking any hard data and considering that she’s one of these supposed superior intelligences with all those fancy degrees and stuff I must conclude that she did know all about it and didn’t care as long as his star was rising. In that case, unless anyone can prove otherwise, she can GFH as far as I’m concerned.
Just once I’d like to see one of these phony ‘successful women’ stand up and say they are throwing the bum out. Lacking such fortitude I don’t care about them one whit.
My wife doesn’t have one of those ‘superior educations’ but she wouldn’t tolerate such shenanigans for one second. I’d be lucky to get out of range of her Lady Smith alive. LOL!
