Anna Jacobson Schwartz (November 11 1915 – June 21 2012) was an American economist at the National Bureau of Economic Research in New York City and according to Paul Krugman one of the world’s greatest monetary scholars. She was best known for her collaboration with Milton Friedman on A Monetary History of the United States 1867–1960 published in 1963 which laid a large portion of the blame for the Great Depression at the door of the Federal Reserve System.
