Author Information

Phoebus James Dhrymes was born in Ktima (Cyprus) on October 1, 1932 and died on April 8, 2016 in New York. His surname derives from the place of his ancestry, “Dhrymou” (nowadays spelled “Drimou”), a small village in the Paphos district, only a few miles from Ktima.   His life journey from the humble beginnings of a village boy to the Edwin W. Rickert Professor of Economics at Columbia University, is an amazing story of diligence and perseverance, sprinkled with seemingly inadvertent decisions, such as his volunteering to be drafted into the US Army in 1952, but always driven by the single-mindedness to succeed, and guided by the most honorable virtues of his Greek heritage: fairness (δικαιοσύνη), temperance (σωφροσύνη), fortitude (ανδρεία) and wisdom (φρόνηση); virtues that fostered an unquenched thirst for knowledge, passion for teaching, and a life-time devotion to his family.
