Moses Abramovitz
Moses Abramovitz (January 1, 1912 – December 1, 2000) was a 20th-century American economist and professor. Born and raised in Brooklyn, New York, he completed his bachelor's degree ''summa cum laude'' in Economics at Harvard University. He went to Harvard with the intention of becoming a lawyer; in light of this, he took criminal justice classes as well as economics. He became more interested in economics than criminal justice because was able to connect economics to the world in which he was living. He earned his Ph.D. at Columbia University in 1939. In 1985, he was awarded an honorary doctorate from the University of Uppsala in Sweden. In 1991, he was invited to Rome to become a fellow of the prestigious Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. He was awarded another doctorate at the University of Ancona, in 1992. Abramovitz died in California at Stanford Hospital on December 1, 2000, at the age of 88. He was suffering from a gastroenterological infection.
Abramovitz was known for his modest personality and was one of the least ego-driven scholars in economics. Known as Moe among family and friends, he married Carrie Glasser, a Brooklyn-born painter and sculptor, in 1937. She died in 1999.
Abramovitz started his career as a lecturer at Harvard University in the mid-1930s. After finishing his doctorate at Columbia University, he joined the National Bureau of Economic Research in New York, where he began his investigation of inventory investment cycles. During World War II, Abramovitz served on the War Production Board and in the Office of Strategic Services as chief of the European industry and trade section. In 1945 and 1946, he was economic adviser to the United States representative on the Allied Reparations Commission. He also was one of the founding faculty of the Department of Economics at Stanford University, which he joined in the fall of 1948 and taught in for almost 30 years. From 1962 to 1963 he served as adviser to the secretary general of the Organization of Economics Cooperation and Development in Paris. He then became the chair of the organization from 1963 to 1965 and from 1971 to 1974. Over the course of his career Abramovitz made many pioneering studies of macroeconomics and long-term growth. His 1986 article "Catching up, Forging Ahead and Falling Behind" is the second most cited of all the papers published by the ''Journal of Economic History''.
