Federal Reserve Governor Lisa D. Cook, At "Macrofinance In The Long Run: New Insights On The Global Economy" 2024 Annual Conference Of The Julis-Rabinowitz Center For Public Policy & Finance At Princeton's School Of Public And International Affairs, Princeton, New Jersey

Date 22/02/2024

Thank you, Gianluca, and thank you for the opportunity to speak to you today. Let me begin by recognizing the Department of Economics at Princeton for its history of nurturing and supporting scholars in reaching their full potential. Some of the most important, transformative conversations I have had in my career have happened on this campus and with economists making significant contributions to the field. Let me start with the last time I was here. When I was a post doc at Stanford, I emailed Alan Krueger out of the blue and attached an early version of a new paper, asking him if he would meet with me for an hour to discuss it. Because of his experience with large data sets, and his curiosity, thoughtfulness, and generosity, one hour turned into three hours. And he brought along a new assistant professor, Dean Karlan. Not only did I learn a tremendous amount from Alan during that encounter, almost ten years later, I learned even more from him working as a senior economist at the Council of Economic Advisers when Alan was Chair. It is a great legacy of your department that you provided the conditions and support for Alan to make his seminal contributions to economics.
