# Eva Dubin
## Summary
Eva Dubin (also known as Eva Andersson-Dubin) is a Swedish-born physician, former Miss Sweden, and the wife of hedge fund manager Glenn Dubin. She maintains one of the most extensive correspondences in Jeffrey Epstein's archive, with [7,100 emails](/person/eva-dubin-dubinandco) spanning from 1991 to 2023. The archive documents a decades-long personal friendship that continued through Epstein's 2008 conviction and his 2019 arrest. Dubin previously dated Epstein before marrying Glenn Dubin, and the couple remained close to Epstein, hosting him for holidays, arranging theater tickets and travel through his staff, and using his properties and drivers for personal errands. The correspondence reveals frequent coordination between their households, with Dubin appearing in Virginia Giuffre's 2015 discovery requests as someone whose communications with Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell were sought. In 2020, federal prosecutors investigating Epstein's network subpoenaed documents related to the Dubin children.
Eva Dubin founded the Dubin Breast Center at Mount Sinai Medical Center after her own breast cancer diagnosis in 2002. She and her husband donated $16 million to establish the comprehensive cancer treatment facility, which opened in 2011. The archive documents Epstein's involvement in promoting the center and facilitating art donations to Mount Sinai through Dubin's coordination. In August 2014, Eva actively solicited Epstein's help identifying wealthy art collectors who could donate pieces to a [Phillips auction fundraiser](/drive/vol00011-efta02518295-pdf) for the Dubin Breast Center, asking ["Anyone you think that I should ask??"](/drive/vol00011-efta02518295-pdf) The solicitation sought artwork donations with minimum $20,000 estimates, with all proceeds going directly to the Center.
Following Epstein's July 2019 arrest on federal sex trafficking charges, a spokesperson for the Dubins issued a statement to the New York Times claiming the ["Dubins are horrified by the new allegations"](/drive/vol00009-efta00172299-pdf) and asserting that ["Mr. Dubin's business relationship with Mr. Epstein, which ended more than a decade ago, was extremely limited. The Dubins were loyal friends and mistakenly believed Mr. Epstein, a person they had known for decades, had rehabilitated himself after his 2008 plea and deserved a second chance."](/drive/vol00009-efta00172299-pdf) This public characterization of the relationship as "extremely limited" contradicts the extensive email archive documenting thousands of communications and regular coordination between the households through at least April 2019, just three months before Epstein's arrest.
## Background
Eva Andersson-Dubin is a board-certified internist who competed as [Miss Sweden and was a finalist in the Miss Universe pageant](vol00009-efta01125290-pdf). She worked as an international model for the Ford agency before pursuing medicine, completing her medical education at the Karolinska Institute School of Medicine in Stockholm and UCLA School of Medicine. She completed her residency at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York.
She is married to Glenn Dubin, co-founder and former CEO of Highbridge Capital Management, a multi-billion dollar hedge fund [acquired by J.P. Morgan Chase](vol00011-efta02682709-pdf). The couple has three children: Jordan, Celina, and Maya. Glenn Dubin serves on the Mount Sinai Board of Trustees and was a founding board member of the Robin Hood Foundation.
In 2002, at age 44, Eva Dubin was [diagnosed with Stage One breast cancer](vol00011-efta02682709-pdf). Following treatment, she and her husband donated [$16 million and helped raise another $7.4 million](vol00011-efta02682709-pdf) to establish the Dubin Breast Center at Mount Sinai Medical Center, which opened in 2011. The 15,000-square-foot comprehensive facility provides integrated breast cancer care, including medical oncology, surgery, radiology, radiation, psychosocial support, and holistic therapies.
Eva Dubin dated Jeffrey Epstein before her marriage to Glenn Dubin. A [Wikipedia article preserved in Epstein's archive](/drive/vol00009-efta00264301-pdf) notes that Epstein "housed different friends at 11 East 71st Street, including his ex-girlfriend Eva Andersson, who is now married to his hedge-fund friend Glenn Dubin." The relationship transitioned to friendship, and the Dubins maintained close ties to Epstein for decades.
The financial relationship between Epstein and Glenn Dubin's Highbridge Capital was extensive and formalized. In 2010, Glenn Dubin provided an [affidavit](/drive/vol00009-efta00722151-pdf) in support of Epstein's investment interests, describing him as "both a personal friend of mine and a major client of my firm, Highbridge Capital Corporation." A June 1, 2005 [consulting agreement](/drive/vol00009-efta00589969-pdf) between Highbridge Capital Management and Epstein's Financial Trust Company paid Epstein $2,250,000 in consulting fees ($450,000 per year for five years), with the agreement specifying that ["The Consultant will assign Jeffrey Epstein to perform all of the services contemplated herein."](/drive/vol00009-efta00589969-pdf) The agreement also granted Epstein's entities the right to invest 0.85% of Highbridge's total assets under management on employee-fee terms, waiving standard management fees. Glenn Dubin was copied on the fax cover sheet transmitting the signed agreement. According to a [July 2019 New York Times article](/drive/vol00009-efta00172299-pdf) in the archive, Epstein invested $10 million in Highbridge through his Virgin Islands consulting firm, which grew to approximately $30 million before he withdrew the funds in 2013.
The Times article also documents that Epstein played a material role in connecting Glenn Dubin with Jes Staley, who at the time was running J.P. Morgan's investment bank: ["Mr. Epstein connected Mr. Staley with Mr. Dubin, who at the time was running Highbridge... A few years later, in 2004, Mr. Staley orchestrated a deal in which JPMorgan bought a majority stake in Highbridge."](/drive/vol00009-efta00172299-pdf) This means Epstein facilitated one of Wall Street's significant hedge fund acquisitions, benefiting both Staley's career at JPMorgan and providing Glenn Dubin with a lucrative exit.
In November 2020, the [FBI briefing documents note](vol00010-efta01659105-pdf) that "Epstein Prosecutors Seek Documents Related To Dubin's Children," indicating ongoing federal investigative interest in the family's connection to Epstein's network.
## Correspondence with Epstein
Eva Dubin's correspondence with Epstein spans 32 years, from 1991 to 2023, encompassing [7,100 emails](/person/eva-dubin-dubinandco) across 5,490 threads. She sent 4,155 emails and received 2,813, making her one of the most frequent correspondents in Epstein's archive.
The emails document an intimate, enduring friendship that persisted through Epstein's legal troubles. In July 2008, while Epstein was serving his sentence following the 2008 Florida plea deal, Eva wrote expressing concern about his wellbeing and shared family travel updates from Tanzania: ["Thinking about you a lot. Hope you are OK. Barcelona was superb. Arrived in Tanzania this morning...Saw lions and zebras. Kids are having a very good time"](/thread/EFTA01827001). She added: ["Is anyone mean to you?? I read what the judge said to you in the court hearing. She is for sure constipated and without sex!!"](/thread/EFTA01827001).
The Dubins maintained active social contact with Epstein during his post-conviction supervised release period. In November 2009, Eva's assistant Kimberly Feierstein coordinated Thanksgiving plans at Epstein's Palm Beach residence, inquiring: ["Eva and family were thinking of going to Jeffrey's house for thanksgiving dinner...Is this plan OK? If not Eva said they could come on Friday for lunch or dinner instead"](/thread/EFTA02435120). Epstein responded accommodating either day. According to the [July 2019 New York Times article](/drive/vol00009-efta00172299-pdf), Eva sent a communication to Epstein's probation officer regarding this Thanksgiving 2009 visit,visit. demonstratingThis demonstrates active coordination to maintain the social relationship during his post-conviction supervision period and a willingness to formally communicate with law enforcement overseeing Epstein's probation.
In December 2018, amid renewed media scrutiny of Epstein, a friend emailed Eva expressing sympathy: ["I just want to say how sorry I am about whatever is going on with Jeffrey right now...It must be very painful to be dragged through the mud in such an ugly way"](/thread/vol00009-efta01014213-pdf). Eva responded: ["Jeff is ok... thick skin .... He really ignores most of it as do most of his friends"](/thread/vol00009-efta01014213-pdf), forwarding the exchange to Epstein with the message "thx. oy."
The correspondence reveals frequent household coordination. Eva regularly borrowed Epstein's drivers for her daughters' transportation needs, including taking [Maya and Celina to the Swedish Consulate](/thread/EFTA02188995) and picking them up from school. In November 2011, she asked: ["Any chance Jojo could take Manato to school tomorrow morning at 7:30?"](/thread/EFTA02179080). Epstein's staff coordinated these arrangements.
Eva and her family spent holidays at Epstein's properties. In November 2009, her assistant Kimberly Feierstein inquired: ["Eva and family were thinking of going to Jeffrey's house for thanksgiving dinner...Is this plan OK? If not Eva said they could come on Friday for lunch or dinner instead"](/thread/EFTA02435120). Epstein responded accommodating either day.
Epstein facilitated professional favors for Eva. In April 2019, Eva recommended two doctors (Dan Adler and Michael Krumholz) when [Lesley Groff asked for gastroenterologist recommendations](/thread/EFTA02282194). In August 2014, Eva forwarded a CV from a Swedish woman seeking work, writing ["Swedish model looking for job as an assistant"](/drive/vol00011-efta02717222-pdf) to Epstein. The CV was from Angelina Jolin of Jolin Production AB, a Stockholm-based media and production professional with addresses in both Stockholm and New York (26 East 63rd Street). Eleven days later, Epstein forwarded Eva's email to his assistant [Lesley Groff](/person/lesley-groff-nameonly) with the subject line changed to ["Fwd: svenska Sara"](/drive/vol00011-efta02717732-pdf) and the instruction to ["see if she can stop by."](/drive/vol00011-efta02717732-pdf) The subject line "svenska Sara" (Swedish for "Swedish Sara") suggests the job-seeker's first name was Sara, distinct from Angelina Jolin who forwarded the CV, and indicates Epstein used nationality-based identifiers when referring to women. No follow-up correspondence documenting what happened after the "stop by" request appears in the archive.
Eva coordinated art donations from Epstein to Mount Sinai. In March 2015, she wrote to Mount Sinai administrator Jonathan Kyriacou: ["We have another art donation. Could you please help with where it should be delivered today or tomorrow"](/thread/vol00009-efta00350567-pdf), with Epstein's staff handling the delivery of three paintings. Beyond facilitating Epstein's personal art donations, Eva also leveraged Epstein's social network for institutional fundraising. In August 2014, she forwarded a [Phillips auction house solicitation](/drive/vol00011-efta02518295-pdf) seeking artwork donations for a Dubin Breast Center fundraiser, asking Epstein ["Anyone you think that I should ask??"](/drive/vol00011-efta02518295-pdf) The solicitation, sent on behalf of Drs. Elisa Port and Eva Andersson-Dubin, sought pieces with minimum $20,000 estimates from artists including Basquiat, Warhol, and Damien Hirst, with all proceeds going directly to the Center and Phillips waiving the vendor's commission. This demonstrates Eva actively recruited Epstein to identify wealthy art collectors in his network who could support her Breast Center's fundraising efforts, well after his 2008 conviction.
The correspondence includes mundane domestic exchanges. Eva frequently requested Epstein's chef's muffins, writing in February 2019: ["I ran out of muffins this morning and I do not know how I will survive without them! Do you have any ideas of how I can get more?"](/thread/EFTA02274811). Epstein's staff arranged deliveries to her apartment.
Epstein provided tickets and shopping access. In June 2017, his staff secured [four house seats to the Broadway play "Oslo"](/thread/EFTA02214134) for Eva. In June 2013, Epstein's assistant wrote to Crown Princess Mette-Marit of Norway: ["Jeffrey says he would like to take you and possibly, Eva Dubin, shopping today at Prada"](/thread/EFTA02134853).
The emails reveal medical consultations. In January 2019, [Karyna Shuliak](/person/karyna-shuliak) wrote to Eva seeking advice about a friend from Belarus with breast cancer, noting ["Jeffrey suggested that I contact you"](/thread/EFTA02312815). Eva offered to help arrange medical consultations.
In 2010, Eva used Epstein's Paris apartment for family travel. In June 2018, [Lesley Groff confirmed arrangements](/drive/vol00011-efta02249008-pdf) for Eva to stay in Epstein's Paris apartment and coordinated airport pickup with Epstein's driver Valdson.
Following Epstein's July 6, 2019 arrest on federal sex trafficking charges, the Dubins moved quickly to publicly distance themselves from their longtime friend. Within sixteen days, a spokesperson issued a statement to the New York Times declaring the ["Dubins are horrified by the new allegations"](/drive/vol00009-efta00172299-pdf) against Epstein and claiming ["Mr. Dubin's business relationship with Mr. Epstein, which ended more than a decade ago, was extremely limited."](/drive/vol00009-efta00172299-pdf) The statement added that ["The Dubins were loyal friends and mistakenly believed Mr. Epstein, a person they had known for decades, had rehabilitated himself after his 2008 plea and deserved a second chance."](/drive/vol00009-efta00172299-pdf) Notably, despite their decades-long intimate friendship documented in thousands of emails, neither Eva nor Glenn Dubin appeared among those who offered to serve as bail guarantors for Epstein during his July 2019 detention hearings—a role filled instead by Epstein's brother Mark Epstein and David Mitchell, as shown in [federal bail hearing documents](/drive/doj-22b490ee51f3c830.pdf).
## Connections
Eva Dubin's primary connection in Epstein's network is her husband [Glenn Dubin](/person/dubin-glenn), with whom she shares [26 emails](/person/dubin-glenn) in the archive. Glenn Dubin corresponded directly with Epstein about business matters, including the [affidavit](/drive/vol00009-efta00722151-pdf) he provided in 2010 supporting Epstein's investment claims and the [2005 consulting agreement](/drive/vol00009-efta00589969-pdf) that paid Epstein $2.25 million over five years.
Eva's most frequent co-correspondent is [Karyna Shuliak](/person/karyna-shuliak) (272 shared emails), Epstein's assistant who frequently coordinated between Eva and Epstein, handling everything from medical recommendations to travel arrangements.
[Lesley Groff](/person/lesley-groff-nameonly) (211 shared emails), Epstein's longtime executive assistant, managed most logistical coordination with Eva, including theater tickets, art donations to Mount Sinai, driver requests, property access, and forwarding the "svenska Sara" job referral for Epstein's review.
[Kimberly Feierstein](/person/feierstein-kimberly-wiley) (47 emails) served as Eva's personal assistant and coordinated holiday plans, including the 2009 Thanksgiving arrangements at Epstein's home.
[Allison Yorke](/person/allison-yorke--2) (46 emails) worked for Dubin & Company and coordinated professional matters, including providing doctor recommendations and managing communications.
[Peggy Siegal](/person/peggy-siegal) (27 emails), the New York publicist and social connector, maintained correspondence with both Epstein and Eva, including a September 2009 email to Epstein noting: ["Saw Eva Dubin yesterday with her kids...she is beyond beautiful"](/drive/vol00011-efta02436885-pdf).

## Document References
Eva Dubin and her husband Glenn appear in Virginia Giuffre's 2015 defamation lawsuit against Ghislaine Maxwell. Document Request No. 6 in [Plaintiff's First Request for Production of Documents](/drive/COURT_giuffre-115cv07433_21-11.pdf) specifically seeks "All documents relating to communications with any of the following individuals from 1999-present: Emmy Taylor, Sarah Kellen, Eva Dubin, Glen Dubin, Jean Luc Brunel, and Nadia Marcinkova." This document request is significant because it groups Eva and Glenn Dubin with Emmy Taylor, Sarah Kellen, Jean-Luc Brunel, and Nadia Marcinkova—individuals who were alleged in various court filings to have facilitated or participated in Epstein's trafficking operation, rather than merely being social acquaintances. The request indicates that Giuffre's legal team considered the Dubins' communications with Epstein and Maxwell to be potentially relevant to allegations of sexual trafficking and abuse.
Glenn Dubin provided a December 2009 [Affidavit](/drive/vol00009-efta00722151-pdf) in arbitration proceedings involving Epstein's investment in the D.B. Zwirn Fund. The affidavit describes Epstein as "both a personal friend of mine and a major client of my firm, Highbridge Capital Corporation," detailing Epstein's $80 million investment through Financial Trust Company, Inc., and subsequent disputes over withdrawal requests. The document establishes the Dubins' dual personal and professional relationship with Epstein.
The formal business relationship is detailed in a June 1, 2005 [consulting agreement](/drive/vol00009-efta00589969-pdf) between Highbridge Capital Management and Financial Trust Company (Epstein's entity). The agreement paid Epstein $2,250,000 in consulting fees over five years and granted his entities preferential investment terms allowing them to invest 0.85% of Highbridge's total assets under management on employee-fee terms without standard management fees. The agreement specified that ["The Consultant will assign Jeffrey Epstein to perform all of the services contemplated herein."](/drive/vol00009-efta00589969-pdf) Glenn Dubin was copied on the fax cover sheet when the signed agreement was transmitted.
A [July 22, 2019 New York Times article](/drive/vol00009-efta00172299-pdf) preserved in the archive provides additional context about the Dubin-Epstein relationship, including that Epstein's introduction of Jes Staley to Glenn Dubin led to JPMorgan's 2004 acquisition of a majority stake in Highbridge, one of the country's largest hedge fund deals. The article includes the Dubin spokesperson's statement issued sixteen days after Epstein's arrest, claiming the relationship was "extremely limited" and had ended "more than a decade ago." The same article notes that Epstein invested $10 million in Highbridge through his Virgin Islands consulting firm, which grew to approximately $30 million before withdrawal in 2013.
An FBI briefing dated November 24, 2020, [reports](/drive/vol00010-efta01659105-pdf): "Epstein Prosecutors Seek Documents Related To Dubin's Children." This indicates federal prosecutors investigating Epstein's network subpoenaed records concerning the Dubin children as part of the criminal investigation following Epstein's 2019 arrest.
## Visits to Epstein Properties
### Manhattan Townhouse (9 East 71st Street)
The archive does not document specific scheduled visits to the townhouse, though the extensive correspondence and coordination with Epstein's household staff suggests regular access. Eva coordinated [art deliveries](/thread/vol00009-efta00350567-pdf) from Epstein to Mount Sinai in 2015.
### Palm Beach Residence
At least two visits are documented:
1. November 15, 2010 - Eva emailed Epstein: ["we [redacted] going to Palm Beach!!!:)"](/drive/vol00011-efta02413576-pdf)
2. November 24, 2010 - Epstein asked Eva ["what day are you going to palm beach?"](/drive/vol00011-efta02415698-pdf) and she responded "Wednesday the 24th"
### Paris Apartment
At least one documented stay:
1. July 15-17, 2018 - [Lesley Groff confirmed](/drive/vol00011-efta02249008-pdf) arrangements for Eva to stay in Epstein's Paris apartment, with Epstein's driver Valdson providing airport pickup and drop-off at Charles de Gaulle
### Little St. James Island (U.S. Virgin Islands)
Multiple references to contact with Epstein while he was on the island:
1. September 19, 2010 - Eva asked: ["What is the number on the island??"](/drive/vol00011-efta02445043-pdf) in response to Epstein forwarding photos from the island
2. September 20, 2010 - Eva wrote: ["I know you called this morning. Tried you on 6 different numbers on the island. No luck"](/drive/vol00011-efta02418855-pdf)
These exchanges indicate Eva had regular phone contact with Epstein during his stays at the island property.
### New Mexico Ranch
No visits documented in the archive.
