Books and More with William Cooper

Luke Shaefer, Professor, University of Michigan

25 Nov 2025

Description

As shines through in the interview, Professor Shaefer has a clear-eyed and deeply informed view of one of the most important--and neglected--topics in American society: poverty alleviation. His work has been cited in the New York Times, Washington Post, The Economist, and The Atlantic, and he has been featured on such programs as PBS NewsHour, Marketplace, 1A, All Things Considered, and CNBC’s Nightly Business Report. His book with Kathryn Edin, "$2.00 a Day: Living on Almost Nothing in America," was named one of the 100 Notable Books of 2015 by the New York Times Book Review, and won the Hillman Prize for Book Journalism among other awards. #economics   DON'T WORRY, BE HAPPY. will-cooper.com
