L. Randall Wray
Larry Randall Wray (born June 19, 1953) is a professor of Economics at Bard College and Senior Scholar at the Levy Economics Institute. Previously, he was a professor at the University of Missouri–Kansas City in Kansas City, Missouri, USA, whose faculty he joined in August 1999, and a professor at the University of Denver, where he served from 1987 to 1999. He has served as a visiting professor at the University of Rome, Italy, the University of Paris, France, and the UNAM, in Mexico City. From 1994 to 1995 he was a Fulbright Scholar at the University of Bologna. From 2015 he is a visiting professor at the University of Bergamo, located in Italy. He was a visiting professor at Masaryk University in the Czech Republic.
Wray is a past president of the Association for Institutional Thought and served on the board of directors of the Association for Evolutionary Economics. He has served, along with fellow post-Keynesian William Mitchell of the Charles Darwin University, Australia, as co-editor of the International Journal of Environment, Workplace, and Employment.
In a 2011 New York Times article he accused Standard & Poor of "attempt[ing] to influence the political debate in Washington" concerning government debt by downgrading US debt from stable to negative.
L. Randall Wray has been a long-time proponent of Modern monetary theory (MMT) and has written and spoken about the subject extensively.
Wray and his fellow MMT advocates have gained at least some acceptance among people working on Wall Street.
Wray received a B.A. from the University of the Pacific and an M.A. and Ph.D. from Washington University in St. Louis. He came to economics relatively late in his academic career after studying psychology as an undergraduate.
On April 6, 2018, Wray gave a lecture at St. Francis College, located in New York City, about Modern Monetary Theory. In this lecture he takes the viewer through the history of MMT and then lists the main benefits of the theory.
On November 20, 2019, Wray gave Congressional testimony, which he called the "Reexamining the Economics of Costs of Debt".
