Andrew Fastow

Andrew Fastow
The chief financial officer at Enron from 1998 until 2001. That year, it was revealed that many of Enron's assets were either overpriced or completely fictional; losses were hidden in offshore subsidies, and most profits were fraudulent. Fastow shared responsibility for much of this; he traded his testimony against co-conspirators in exchange for a lighter prison sentence. He was born in 1961.
