Welcome to Erzo Luttmer's Web Site.

I am an Associate Professor at the Harvard Kennedy School. I'm also a Faculty Research Fellow at the NBER and a Research Fellow at IZA. I hold a Master's degree in econometrics from Erasmus University Rotterdam and a PhD in economics from Harvard University.

My research interests include public economics, political economy, and labor economics. Within these fields, my research focuses on income redistribution programs and the role of social effects on economic outcomes.

I am married to Ellen Meara, an economist on the faculty in the Department of Health Care Policy at Harvard Medical School. Her research focuses on non-medical determinants of health, disparities in health outcomes by education and race, and the impact of public program design on economic and health outcomes. See her CV if you are interested in learning more about her work.
