An American econometrician born in Russia. After graduating from Leningrad University in 1925, he traveled to Germany and earned a doctorate in economics from the University of Berlin. In 1929, he served as an economic advisor to the Chinese government before moving to the US in 1931. He became a lecturer at Harvard University in the same year, and has been a professor since 1946. He transferred to New York University in 1975. During this time, he also served as an advisor to the Department of Commerce.
