Roger Bruce Myerson (born
1951) is an American economist
and professor at the University of Chicago. He holds the title of The Glen A.
Lloyd Distinguished Service Professor in Economics and the College and Harris Graduate School of Public
Policy Studies.[1] In 2007, he was the winner of the Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic
Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel with Leonid
Hurwicz and Eric Maskin for "having laid the
foundations of mechanism design theory." Roger Myerson was born in 1951 in
Boston. He attended Harvard University, where he received his A.B.,
summa cum laude, and S.M.
in applied mathematics in 1973. He completed his Ph.D. in applied mathematics from Harvard
University in 1976. His doctorate thesis was A
Theory of Cooperative Games.From 1976 to 2001, Myerson was a professor of
economics at Northwestern University's Kellogg School of Management, where he
conducted much of his Nobel-winning research. From 1978 to 1979, he was Visiting
Researcher at Bielefeld University. He was Visiting
Professor of Economics at the University of Chicago from 1985–86 and
from 2000–01. He became Professor of Economics at Chicago in 2001. Currently,
he is the Glen A. Lloyd Distinguished Service Professor of Economics at the
University of Chicago. Myerson was one of the three winners of the 2007 Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic
Sciences, the other two being Leonid
Hurwicz of the University of Minnesota, and Eric Maskin
of the Institute for Advanced Study. He was
awarded the prize for his contributions to mechanism design theory. Myerson made a
path-breaking contribution to mechanism design theory when he discovered a
fundamental connection between the allocation to be implemented and the
monetary transfers needed to induce informed agents to reveal their information
truthfully. Mechanism design theory allows for people to distinguish situations
in which markets work well from those in which they do not. The theory has
helped economists identify efficient trading mechanisms, regulation schemes,
and voting procedures. Today, the theory plays a central role in many areas of economics
and parts of political science.
