at elizabeth irwin, he was the equivalent of a republican. [laughter] culturally, elliott was also out of step. like most of his class mates, he was jewish, but unlike most of his classmates who either came from secular families or a product of mixed marriages, elliott's family was observant and kept a kosher home. elliot began to react to what he considered the left-wing ott docks says of the school. browsing the magazine racks, he saw the nation. why, heed is isabelle, the librarian, could the school not achieve some balance in the publication it displayed? why not stock a magazine like the national review? the culture is dominated by right-wig politics, she replied. we don't need to get more of it in our school. [laughter] in elliot's view history teacher harold kirscher in personified the school's politics. of he was a rigorous and dedicated teacher, but his analyses of historical movements seemed patently absurd to him. why do countries acquire colonies? according to the doctor, because countries needed economic markets. who in the hell

and elizabeth irwin -- >> a couple years after. and he was asked if he had communist teachers and said it was none of their business. >> that is right. more than being an old left sort of new york seller. not terribly bad girl. they don't talk about him a lot. angeles spoke of him very fondly and when they first came to the school she came a week before the school opened to get oriented with the people who she was staying with and remembers him smiling at her and being very courtly which reminded her of the south because she went around to the teachers and calling them by their first name and wearing jeans. maybe i made a horrible mistake. maybe this will be full of crazy be next. change did they maintain a continuing involvement with the school? >> most of them would be reunions. almost every year now. i think it has done that pretty regularly. did she really? and tom also comes to vote reunions now and then. he kept sporadic touch with the school. and elliott kept touch with the school until the 1918s and just felt people and cla

he sent me to see his friend, irwin glickis, then the publisher of the free press. i didn't really know very much of anything really about publishing. and i didn't know very much about irwin because book publishers tend to be background figures so you don't really know when you buy a book off the shelf who the editor and publisher is. it's not what motivates people to buy a book. it turned out that irwin had been a very significant force in american intellectual publishing. it was irwin who signed among other things the closing of the american mind, by alan bloom. and alan had been also a family friend and a teacher of mine. i spent a year at the university of chicago in the committee on social thought, and so when you asked me, you know, who are my influences, all of these men were influential to me. my father primarily -- you know, in so many ways, it is hard to quantify, but more importantly my father was a member of a generation of writers and intellectuals who were conducting a high level conversation about the fate of western culture and its values and other w

but it turned out irwin had been a very significant force in publishing. it was irwin who signed up, among other things, "the closing of the american mind" by alan bloom. and alan had been also a family friend and a teacher of mine. i spent a year at the university of chicago in the committee on social thought. so when you asked me, you know, who were my influences, all of these men were influential to me. my father primarily, you know, in so many ways it's hard to quantify, but more importantly my father was a member of a generation of writers and intellectuals who were conducting a high-level conversation about the fate of western culture and its values. and other writers of his caliber were involved in it, gunther gras, you know, people of that level who felt it was part of their role as serious writers to uphold the values that preserve the conditions of freedom. and, of course, it was the cold war, and that's what the kind of level of discourse was. i would say the same about alan bloom, my teacher, who was -- as i would describe him, a kind of jewish

-- mentor, irwin glickas. i was powerfully influenced by the controversy around that book, and i wanted to produce that same kind of effect, you know? and what -- but to characterize the debate about the closing of the american mind, it was really an argument about the philosophical foundations of liberalism. and the response to it, it was a very profound challenge published by somebody who really had thought through his own position in a very profound way. the response to it, i thought, was, you know, motion -- emotional, overheated, hysterical. and i remember having a conversation with alan about the book before it was published. i had read it in manuscript, and i was very familiar with his arguments, you know? i'd been in his classes for a year in chicago, and i asked him, well, alan, what do you think will happen when book is published? nobody thought anything would happen. i didn't think anything would happen. it was a minor, you know, book by a midwestern, obscure midwestern academic. he said, oh, it'll

i'm speaking, of course, about irwin. [laughter] who helped me so much with this book and who allowed me to be here today. as irwin mentioned, i have known him for more than 15 years, and i've turned to him for wisdom on more subjects than i can count whether it's been writing the city charter or the various trials that i covered and irwin followed from the patriot act to the challenges faced by reporters trying to do their work today amid a war on terror. i know of no person who is more fluent on more subjects or more generous and graceful with his time and knowledge. in los angeles we consider it a great act of beany sense that we have shared irwin with you, and i thank you you in turn for sharing with the nation. we are a better country because of him, and i am enormously proud that he is my friend. so with that, let me talk about another great man. earl warren. earl warren is in many respects, i think, misunderstood. sometimes by those who don't know better and sometimes by those who should, who do or at least should.

irwin said i could have been a target audience for this particular program.nately, when i went to school, i was able to read very well. i was one of those kids that raised their hands to read, but we did not have books in our house. my family came from italy and immigrants and there were not any books in our house to speak of. so but i did learn to read. like i said in school, continued through high school and college and eventually actually probably after college is what i when i kind of started reading my wife at that time was a big reader. she would hand me books that she read. i said, very good or good on them. so i actually it was as an adult, i pretty much got got into reading my daughters and my children. i really helped out and they were reading back. one of my daughters got penalized for reading during a lesson. she had her book. it was reading during lessons, but i did not have that background. i was a i would have been a good target audience for reading rainbow and i just, you know, didn't have that background that most children nowadays could have

irwin: it is an honor to be part of this panel. as dalia said, the most important change in the supreme court in the past year was the death of justice ruth bader ginsburg and a confirmation and swearing in of amy coney barrett. it is often remarked that anytime there is a new justice it is a different court, especially someone you hover -- especially when you have replaced a liberal justice with a conservative justice. we should think of this term as a supreme court in transition. i neither want to overstate the importance or underestimate its importance. i think it is -- this last term was particularly revealing. one year ago, in october 2019, does a pre-court decided 53 cases and -- the supreme court decided 53 cases. last year, there were 14 five/four decisions. in 10 of the 14, the majority was roberts, thomas, scalia, gorsuch, and cavanaugh. we are replacing ginsburg in garrett in those cases last year. that is likely to change the margin, but not the outcome. we are likely to have six/three rather than five/four decisions. b

the hour long discussion is moderated by senior economics correspondent neil irwin. [inaudible conversations] >> i am neil irwin of the new york times, welcome to an opportunity to hear from three of the most important shapers of economic policy of our era, the panelists need no introduction. it is my job to introduce them anyway. between them are panelists chaired the last 103 meetings in the federal market committee, that has been 13 years, they have participated in 271 meetings. if you believe monetary policy has been good over the last 15 or 20 years you have them to thank. if you think it has been bad you have them to blame. been burning key -- ben bernanke chaired the fed from 2006 to 2014. janet yellen served as the chair of central bank from 2014-18. jerome powell chaired the central bank the last 11 months. he is not an economist, this sounds like the start of a joke. what happens when a lawyer walks into a conference with 13,000 economists? we are about to find out. let's dive in first with you, chair powell. since the december fomc meeting market has been

the question becomes at this point is the new center of american politics more irwin focused or more suburban and my evidence and the evidence in the book seems to be suggesting that where we will see a new political center if you think about it is around suburban america. the other way described american politics is that 50 years ago american public opinion formed a bell curve. most were in the center but there were some far left and far right in over 50 or period we have gone from a bell curve to a bimodal curve. there's evidence that bimodal curve will shift to something that looks like a bell curve in terms of public opinion in about 10 years mostly due to the generational shift that's going on. >> we have special phone lines for this segment. breaking it down by generation so if you are under (320)274-8800 or 30 to 6-202-748-8001 where few were over 627-48-8003. your questions for professor shilts and professor usada selection features the last gasp of the silent generation in terms of its influence in american politics. what do you mean by that? >> i would say the last gasp for
