[tabatha]

Larry Summers, President Obama's key economic adviser, will leave the administration by the end of the year and return to Harvard.

Larry Summers, the director of the National Economic Council, becomes the latest member of Obama's economic team to leave.

Last month, Christina D. Romer, chairman of the White House Council of Economic Advisers, left that post to return to the University of California, Berkeley. The president quickly nominated longtime economic adviser Austan D. Goolsbee to replace her.
