Michele Boldrin (Italian: [miˈkɛːle]; August 20, 1956) is an Italian-born economist, expert in economic growth, business cycles, technological progress and intellectual property. He is currently the Joseph Gibson Hoyt Distinguished Professor in Arts & Sciences at Washington University in St. Louis. Along with his colleague and coauthor David Levine, he was part of the group of 200 economists publicly opposing the 2009 Stimulus bill. He later publicly defended his position on the issue in various international media, including a public debate with Brad DeLong.
Boldrin was born and raised in Padua, Italy, and later moved to Venice. He did his undergraduate studies at the University of Venice. He then received his M.S. (1985) and Ph.D. (1987) in economics from the University of Rochester in New York, under the supervision of Lionel McKenzie. Before moving to St. Louis in the Fall of 2006, he worked at University of Chicago (1986–87), UCLA (1987–94), Kellogg School of Management (1990–94), Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (1994–99), and University of Minnesota (1999–2006). He is a research fellow at the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis since 2006.
