John Kenneth Galbraith, 1908-2006
by Liz Johnson, Special Projects Bibliographer
John Kenneth Galbraith, pre-eminent economic theorist of the twentieth century, died April 29th at the age of 97. He worked with several presidents and policy-makers, most notably Franklin Roosevelt, John F. Kennedy, and Lyndon Johnson. Galbraith was the architect of President Johnson's "Great Society" program. Among numerous publications, his most influential book was The Affluent Society, written in 1958.
Galbraith had a very long tenure at Harvard University. Through his lectures as well as his prolific writings the influence of his economic theories started several decades ago and no doubt will continue for a long time to come. A selected list of his writings is attached, although many may not be readily available.
Based on the New York Times obituary of April 30, 2006 by Holcomb B. Noble and Douglas Martin.
