Professor Laurence Kotlikoff welcomes Glenn Loury, a distinguished economist and public intellectual renowned for his insightful analyses on racial inequality, affirmative action, and social policy. Hailing from a humble background on the south side of Chicago, Loury made his mark in academia with his groundbreaking works and frank discussions on contentious issues. He became the first black tenured professor of economics at Harvard at the age of 33, authoring several influential papers and books that debate and dissect the societal underpinnings of race and economic disparities.
