Thanks to Avi for posting this. Sorry for the late notice, The Xmas season had some crazy deadlines and I am just catching up now with the fun things in life.....ie economics :)

------------------

Economist Joseph E. Stiglitz is scheduled to be interviewed at the 92nd St Y on Tuesday, January 19, 2010, at 8:00pm. The ticket price is $27. There is also a pre-event discussion between 6:30pm and 7:45pm with a ticket price of $13. I am not sure whether Stiglitz will be part of the pre-event discussion.

Some information about Stiglitz from the event description: "Joseph E. Stiglitz, winner of the 2001 Nobel Prize for Economics, is the author of Making Globalization Work, Globalization and Its Discontents and The Three Trillion Dollar War. His most recent work is the forthcoming Freefall, a searing analysis of how America has exported bad behavior, bad policies and bad economics to the rest of the world, and which outlines how to restore the power balance between markets and government."
