Early life

Marne Lynn Levine is the daughter of Mark Levine, an ophthalmologist of Shaker Heights, Ohio, and Teri Levine.[1] She graduated from Laurel School in Shaker Heights in 1988.[2] She majored in political science and speech communications at Miami University in Ohio and graduated in 1992. In 2005, she graduated from Harvard Business School, where she did a project on waste management and earned the nickname "Trash Queen".[2]

Career

From 1993 to 2000, she worked at the United States Treasury Department on issues like the 1997 Asian financial crisis and predatory lending. She was chief of staff from 2001 to 2003 for Harvard University president Larry Summers.[3] From 2006 to 2008, she was a product manager at Revolution Money.[2] From 2009 to 2010, she was chief of staff for the National Economic Council.[2]

Levine was vice president of global public policy for Facebook from 2010 to 2014,[4] when she became Instagram's first COO.[5] She was succeeded in her public policy role by Joel Kaplan.[6] In 2018, following the departure of Dan Rose who previously held this position since 2006, she became the VP of Global Partnerships, Business and Corporate Development.[7] Justin Osofsky, VP of Global Operations was named COO at Instagram in 2019.[8]

Boards

Levine is a member of the board of Lean In, a non-profit founded by Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg to empower women.[9][10] She is also on the Board of Directors of Chegg[11] and Women for Women International.[4] Levine is a member of the Trilateral Commission.[12]

Personal life

On June 21, 2003, Levine married Philip Joseph Deutch (his second marriage), then a managing director and venture capitalist at Perseus, the son of Samayla D. Deutch, a lawyer and John M. Deutch, the Director of Central Intelligence from 1995 to 1996, and a professor at MIT. They are both Jewish and have two sons.[1][13][10]

She suffered a partial hearing loss at the age of four, and because of embarrassment, employed coping strategies rather than visible hearing aids. She started to use hearing aids in 2015, which she said made her life exponentially better.[14]
