Matthew Richardson (New York University Professor)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Matthew Richardson is a New York University professor, the Charles E. Simon Professor of Applied Economics in the Finance Department at the Leonard N. Stern School of Business. He is also the Sidney Homer Director of the Salomon Center and a Research Associate of the National Bureau of Economic Research.

Prof. Matthew Richardson was drawn to media attention when apparently accidentally impersonated by a British Oxford engineering undergraduate by the same name, who took up the offer to perform a series of lectures in Beijing, managing to use a low level text book to "blag" through two lectures before fleeing from his Chinese audience.
