Robert E. Wright (b. 1969[1] in Rochester, N.Y.) is a business, economic, financial, and monetary historian who recently became the inaugural Rudy and Marilyn Nef Family Chair of Political Economy at Augustana College in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.[2] He is also a research economist at the National Bureau of Economic Research,[3] an editor of Pickering & Chatto of London’s financial history and perspectives in economic and social history series, and a guest curator for the newly revamped Museum of American Finance.[4] Contents 1 Education and Research 2 Publicity and Impact 3 Personal Views 4 Bibliography 5 Notes // Education and Research After graduating from Fairport High School in 1987, Wright took degrees in History from Buffalo State College, where he was a member of the All-College Honors Program,[5] and the State University of New York at Buffalo (Ph.D., 1997).[6] Since 2001 he has authored or co-authored six books on early U.S. financial and political history, two tomes about major corporations (Guardian Life and publisher John Wiley & Sons),[7] a popular exposé of the economic and contractual problems plaguing the U.S. construction industry, an open Money and Banking textbook available for free on the website of textbook publisher Flat World Knowledge and a major critique of U.S. public policies related to bailouts and the banking, construction, health care, higher education, and retirement savings industries.[8] New England Publishing Associates agents his work.[9] Publicity and Impact Fubarnomics: A Lighthearted, Serious Look at America's Economic Ills, Wright's most recent book, came out of Buffalo publisher Prometheus in August 2010 and is already generating considerable interest, including an interview on the John Batchelor Show that aired on 17 July, an appearance on the Willis Report on 20 July, a review in the L.A. Times that appeared on 27 August, an an interview on the Dylan Ratigan Show on 7 September. Wright’s One Nation Under Debt (formerly “Born in Debt”),[10] was published by McGraw Hill in early 2008[11] and generated substantial media attention, including interviews on The Joey Reynolds Show,[12] The Dr. Pat Show,[13] Lou Dobb’s radio show (twice),[14] Larry Kane’s Voice of Reason,[15] and other outlets. Choice named the book one of the best economics titles of 2008[16] and the National Chamber Foundation named it "One of the Books That Drive the Free Enterprise Debate." [17] His earlier research also won some minor awards.[18] Wright has several books forthcoming, including an edited volume called Bailouts: Public Money, Private Profit for the Social Science Research Council,[19] and a book on the role the real estate mortgage crisis of the 1760s played in the coming of the American Revolution discussed at length in the New York Times.[20] Although considered “much underrated” by some[21] and not yet as widely known as Harvard financial and diplomatic historian Niall Ferguson, Wright is increasingly attracting the attention of mainstream media outlets[22] as well as the blogosphere[23] due to the unusual combination of detailed scholarship and interesting prose stylings that characterize much of his work.[24] The financial crisis of 2008 greatly raised Wright’s profile by highlighting the importance of his research agenda, which he often summarizes in his “finance: history and policy” blog. Within a few months of the failure of Lehman Brothers, Wright appeared on David Asman’s Fox News special “Saving Our Economy: What’$ Next?,”[25] On Point with Tom Ashbrook on NPR,[26] and several other television and radio programs. He was also quoted in the Chicago Tribune,[27] the Wall Street Journal,[28] the Washington Times,[29] the New York Times,[30] the Los Angeles Times,[31] and several other major newspapers. He also published opinion editorials in the Los Angeles Times,[32] Reason,[33] McKinsey Quarterly,[34] DismalScientist,[35] and other publications and websites. He also recently authored a Money and Banking textbook for cutting edge publisher Flat World Knowledge Wright frequently collaborates with other leading scholars, including Richard E. Sylla of New York University’s Stern School of Business, where Wright taught from 2003 until 2009. Before that, Wright taught economics at the University of Virginia,[36] where he teamed up with Virginia economist Ron Michener in a dispute against Farley Grubb, an economist at the University of Delaware, over the nature of colonial and early U.S. money and monetary systems.[37] Personal Views Wright is a libertarian,[38] a Deist,[39] and such a fan of Alexander Hamilton that according to the Wall Street Journal he named one of his sons “Alexander Hamilton Was Wright,”[40] a revelation that spurred commentary on the web.[41] His review of Ron Chernow’s biography of Hamilton was written in a faux eighteenth century style and hints at Wright’s dry sense of humor.[42] Bibliography Fubarnomics: A Lighthearted, Serious Look at America's Economic Ills (2010).
