I joined The New School in 2008 after 25 years as a professor of economics at the University of Notre Dame. My recent book, co-authored with Blackstone's Tony James and titled, Rescuing Retirement, charts a visionary, bipartisan, and simple path to solving the retirement crisis. I also wrote How to Retire with Enough Money, with Workmen Press. I am a trustee of the $53 billion Medical Health Care Trust for GM, Ford, Chrysler UAW retirees and past trustee of the Indiana Public Employees Retirement System, Commissioner on the Bipartisan Policy Center’s Personal Savings Initiative; member of the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation advisory board, serving from 1995- 2002.
