Len Cabrera is a retired Air Force Lieutenant Colonel with a PhD in economics (Florida), a masters degree in operations research (Stanford), and an MBA (West Florida).  As if being an economist were not enough to be a know-it-all, he’s been to schools for lots of stuff, from auto racing to wilderness survival.

He’s the author (with Richard Fullerton) of Basic Personal Finance and is currently (sometimes) working on an undergraduate microeconomics textbook. He lives a semi-retired life in Gainesville, FL, and thinks about his book while riding his bike.
