A teacher, scientist, author, revolutionary intellectual, and winner of the 1976 Nobel Prize in economics, Milton Friedman is considered one of the greatest proponents of individual freedom and individual choice.

Milton Friedman served as economic advisor for two American Presidents - Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan. Although Friedman was inevitably drawn into the national political spotlight, he never held public office.

Milton and Rose Friedman, seen here in Tiananmen Square, have been partners for sixty-eight years. As Rose says, "two partners, one career."
