Author of Goldman Sachs Parody Twitter Account Never Worked at Goldman Sachs

The man behind the Goldman Sachs parody Twitter account — @GSElevator — has never even worked at Goldman Sachs. Of course. According to The New York Times, the author is John Lefevre, a 34-year-old former bond executive, who now lives in Texas.

Lefevre worked for CitiGroup for seven years, and only started the account — which supposedly repeated absurd conversations overheard in the Goldman Sachs elevator — after hearing about the Conde Nast elevator Twitter account (@CondeElevator).
