Dr. Arthur B. Laffer

Dr. Laffer served as a member of President Reagan s Economic Policy Advisory Board for both terms. In March 1999, he was noted by Time Magazine as one of the Century s Greatest Minds for his invention of the Laffer Curve, which has been called one of a few of the advances that powered this extraordinary century. He has received many awards for his economic research, including two Graham and Dodd Awards from the Financial Analyst Federation.
