Raj Chetty is the William A. Ackman Professor of Economics at Harvard
University. He is also the Director of Opportunity Insights, which uses “big
data” to understand how we can give children from disadvantaged backgrounds
better chances of succeeding. Chetty’s research combines empirical evidence and
economic theory to help design more effective government policies. His work on
topics ranging from tax policy and unemployment insurance to education and
affordable housing has been widely cited in academia, media outlets, and
Congressional testimony.

Chetty received his Ph.D. from Harvard University in 2003 and is one of the
youngest tenured professors in Harvard’s history. Before joining the faculty at
Harvard, he was a professor at UC-Berkeley and Stanford University. Chetty has
received numerous awards for his research, including a MacArthur “Genius”
Fellowship and the John Bates Clark medal, given to the economist under 40 whose
work is judged to have made the most significant contribution to the field.
