Biographical Sketch
I came to Middlebury in the fall of 1995, soon after
completing my PhD at Yale under the supervision of John
Geanakoplos. I was born and raised in Montreal, Quebec, and
have a BA (First Honours) from McGill University and an MA
from Queen’s University at Kingston in Ontario. In 2008, I
was appointed the Jermain Professor of Political Economy at
Middlebury.
I teach courses in macroeconomics, poverty and inequality,
labor economics and game theory, and do research in
behavioral economics, radical political economy and the
economics of philanthropy.
I am married to Carolyn Craven, a development economist and
award-winning children's book author. We share our old
Vermont house with our remarkable twin daughters, Emma
Laurel and Catriona Mari, now fifteen, and two cats.
