ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Mary Daly became the 13th President and Chief Executive Officer of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco on October 1, 2018. She joined the Bank in 1996 and was Executive Vice President and Director of Research before her current appointment.
Her research is in the fields of macroeconomics and labor economics, with a focus on labor force dynamics and on the impacts of monetary and fiscal policy. She has published influential work on
wage, employment, and labor force dynamics, economic inequality, the economics of social security and disability, and evidence-based public policy. Dr. Daly has also worked to increase diversity and inclusion within the Federal Reserve System and in economics more broadly.
A school dropout, living alone as a teenager, and working various jobs, she was persuaded to take a high-school equivalency exam (known in the US as the GED) and go back to school. After receiving a BA from her local state school, the University of Missouri-Kansas, she eventually obtained a doctorate in economics from Syracuse University and did a post-doc at Northwestern University before joining the SF Fed.
