Jeffrey A. Tucker

Jeffrey Albert Tucker is the editorial vice president of the Ludwig von Mises Institute, a think tank that espouses the Austrian School of economics. He is the current webmaster for the institute's website, Mises.org. Tucker is also an adjunct scholar with the Mackinac Center for Public Policy[1] and an Acton University faculty member.[2]

Work as writer and editor

Tucker compiled an annotated bibliography of the works of Henry Hazlitt, entitled Henry Hazlitt: Giant For Liberty, which is now in print. A Foundation for Economic Education review described the book, which "includes citations of a novel, works on literary criticism, treatises on economics and moral philosophy, several edited volumes, some 16 other books and many chapters in books, plus articles, commentaries, and reviews," as "an apt eulogy of Henry Hazlitt."[3]

As a writer, Tucker has contributed scholarly efforts and humorous essays to LewRockwell.com, Mises.org and elsewhere. Examples of the latter essays include his defense of morning drinking,[4] his advice on "How to Dress Like a Man",[5] his attack on shaving cream,[6] and his admiration for the speedy-service haircut.[7] He is a critic[8] of the Grameen Bank which, along with its founder Muhammad Yunus, was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2006.[9]

Catholicism

Tucker is a convert [10] to the Roman Catholic church and is managing editor of Sacred Music. He is one of the leading champions of traditional music in the Catholic Church, and a high-profile member of the "Reform of the Reform" movement.[11]
