Leon H. Keyserling (1908–1987) participated in almost all of the major macroeconomic debates in the United States from the early 1930s to the late 1970s. From 1933 until 1937 he served as a key aide to Senator Robert F. Wagner (D-NY) and drafted pathbreaking labor and housing legislation. As general counsel of the United States Housing Authority from 1937 to 1945 he played a central role in formulating and implementing New Deal housing policy. Keyserling was a founding member of the Council of Economic Advisors (CEA) in 1946 and was appointed chairman in 1950. After his term on the CEA ended in 1953, he became a private consultant, wrote frequently for major newspapers and magazines, and testified regularly before Congressional committees.
