I teach economics at Smith College.  I have published an introductory microeconomics textbook and a book on game theory.  I have a Ph.D. in economics from the University of Chicago and a J.D. from Stanford.
 
I write a monthly column for Better Investing Magazine.
 
I used to write for CNBC.com.
 
I have also published non-academic articles in BusinessWeek.com, Inside Higher Ed, TCS Daily, The Orlando Sentinel, Forbes, The Weekly Standard and The National Review Online.
 
I have published academic articles on game theory, litigation, perjury, computer encryption, state lotteries and Greek mythology.
 
I have recently become interested in the possibility of a technological singularity.

Dr. Miller,

After perusing your website and looking over some of the various accomplishments you have achieved in your young life, several comments have come to mind. First, I must convey to you how much respect I hold for a man of your regard. Your ability to talk only of yourself and expect others to hold you in such high esteem is powerfully awe-inspiring. After considering the popularity and success rate of the captivating course 'Economics' you teach at Smith, the only logical conclusion one can draw is that you truly are as great as you make yourself sound on your personal website. I must add that it is quite refreshing to finally find a man that holds his own opinions higher than not only those he teaches but also the 'public' that is so very blessed to hear your views for 4 minute intervals on a hardly known radio station in Northampton. I earnestly wish you the best of luck finding friends who share you views of yourself, even at a women's college.

Sincerely,
Your #1 Fan

PS
Why don't you wear your wedding band?
