Scott Sumner
Scott Sumner is the economist behind The Money Illusion, the blog that turned an obscure idea - that central banks should target nominal GDP, not just inflation - into a mainstream policy debate. The intellectual force behind market monetarism, he spent 33 years teaching at Bentley before becoming the Ralph G. Hawtrey Chair Emeritus of Monetary Policy at George Mason's Mercatus Center. A late bloomer who bought his first cell phone in 2011, he is also a prolific film reviewer who has watched and rated thousands of movies.
