After reading an article about him and his work on Wired, I became quite interested. I searched Wikipedia for his name, but found only results with papers published by him, serving as references for articles. I've decided to create this page because he seems notable enough, and I tried my best to fill it with as much information as I could find, but I couldn't find anything resembling a biography. His birth year might be wrong, since I used the wired article statement about him being 50 years old at the time to calculate it. The sources I used are in the external links.

Hopefully this page is relevant enough for Wikipedia, as I'd like to see more information about him and his work. Phelan 02:43, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

It would be nice to see more information about his previous work in economic history and labor economics. Pricetheory (talk) 16:08, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Also, more biographical information would be good. He's the son of Walter and Marjorie Galenson (also economists) but I haven't found a source for this online yet. Pricetheory (talk) 16:59, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
