About Me

Daniel Shaviro

I am the Wayne Perry Professor of Taxation at New York University Law School. My research mainly emphasizes tax policy, government transfers, budgetary measures, social insurance, and entitlements reform. My most recent book is Taxes, Spending, and the U.S. Government's March Toward Bankruptcy (2006). My other books include Do Deficits Matter? (1997), When Rules Change: An Economic and Political Analysis of Transition Relief and Retroactivity (2000), Making Sense of Social Security Reform (2000), and Who Should Pay for Medicare? (2004). I am also the author of an unpublished novel, Getting It. I am married with two children (boys aged 11 and 14) as well as three cats.
