He Gets Personal with Papandreou

Had a good interview today with economist Richard Parker. He’s a professor at the JFK School of Government at Harvard. And he’s served as a senior adviser to Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou.

We’ll be running on the radio program the part of the interview in which Parker speaks about Lucas Papademos, and who he is. (He’s the new Prime Minister of Greece).

But here, I ask Parker about how he came to be Papandreou’s interlocutor on economic issues.
