The Economics of COVID-19 with Dr. Ellen Hughes-Cromwick
We're grateful to have Dr. Ellen Hughes-Cromwick, former Chief Economist for the Obama Administration's Department of Commerce, as Third Way Senior Resident Fellow. As the coronavirus pandemic is disrupting every facet of everyday life in the US, she is sharing her insights and observations about the impact on the economy in this blog series. Dr. Hughes-Cromwick draws on expertise from government and her time as chief economist at the Ford Motor Company during the 2008 crash to offer her analyses to help us understand what’s happening—and what could happen—in the US economy in the midst of this global pandemic.
