About Yoram Bauman, PhD
Appearing in venues ranging from the New York Improv to the annual meeting of the American Economic Association, Yoram Bauman has become successfully known as "the first, and only, stand-up economist."
With a B.A. in Mathematics from Reed College and a Ph.D. in Economics from the University of Washington, Bauman seeks to "spread joy" through economics comedy, reform economics education and implement carbon pricing.
When he isn't researching the economics of climate change or teaching in the University of Washington's environmental studies program, Bauman regularly performs at clubs and corporate events around the country.
Producer of the political comedy benefit show, Non-Profit Comedy, Bauman has helped raise over $75,000 for Seattle-area non-profits. Through Bauman's website, fans can purchase Bauman's book, A Cartoon Introduction to Economics, Volume 1: Microeconomics, read his haiku-filled blog, and find out about his upcoming events.
