W. Michael
Cox is Senior Vice President and Chief Economist at the Federal Reserve
Bank of Dallas. He advises the Bank President on monetary and other
economic policy. Cox is widely published in the nation's top academic
journals. In his twenty-one years at the Fed, he has contributed to a
number of public policy issues, and his research is frequently designated
as required reading for Congress.
Dr. Cox authors the Bank's acclaimed series of annual report essays on
rising American living standards and the new economy. These reports
receive extensive attention from leading publications, including The
Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, USA Today, Los Angeles Times,
Forbes, Fortune and Business Week, reaching an audience of over 200
million. He is a regular contributing columnist for Investor’s
Business Daily.
Dr. Cox has painstakingly documented the progress in Americans’ living
standards. Looking at multiple dimensions—consumption and wealth,
safety and security, leisure time and recreation, working conditions,
variety and choice, and more—he proves that we’ve never been better
off than today. He continues his battle with economic doomsayers by
championing capitalism in his book, Myths of Rich and Poor, nominated
for a Pulitzer Prize. His understanding of technology's importance in
the free enterprise economy of tomorrow inspired Wired magazine to
publish a seven-page interview, and later dub him a “Prophet of Boom.”
The media rely on Dr. Cox's ability to make plain sense out of
difficult economic issues. He is a frequent guest on national radio,
television and Internet programs, including ABC’s John Stossel
program, CNN, Voice of America and National Public Radio.
