Who was the extortionist? this was answered a few hours ago when details about the identity of the extortionist was reveal online after the arrest of Robert “Joe” Halderman. The next question was, who were these women with whom Letterman had a affair? Well, one of them has been identified. According to TMZ, it’s Stephanie Birkitt.

Stephanie Birkitt (aka Burkett) was a former Letterman assistant. Reportedly, Stephanie Birkitt (Burkett, photos/video below) was a former intern at the writers’ department of the Late Show. she then moved to 48 Hours (where Halderman was a producer) but later on applied to be David Letterman’s assistant. She would appear on the show in skits and would also be tasked to do segments of the show, like the 2002 and 2006 Olympics coverages and the CBS Mailbag.
