Alan Greenspan always liked to go by the numbers.
Anne Rowe is the Economist Obituary's editor.
As a boy, he poured over the statistics of his favorite New York Yankees.
When he was a bit older, he played saxophone in the Henry Jerome Orchestra.
In between the sets, when his colleagues were per smoking a little reefer, what he was doing was sitting reading a book on finance or JP Morgan and keeping up all the time with the data, the economy, the business cycle.
All these things had also interested him a good deal.
