Dr. Sherry Cooper is in constant demand as a speaker and writer because of her ability to simplify and de-mystify the complex subjects of economics and finance. Canada’s national newspaper calls Sherry “the megawatt celebrity economist”. She leads a highly-respected economics team and has been repeatedly cited as one of the most influential women in Canada. Dr. Cooper is regularly quoted in the financial press and you have heard her often on radio and TV. Sherry has just published her third book, The New Retirement: How It Will Change Our Future, released in January 2008.

Dr. Cooper has an M.A. and Ph.D. in economics from the University of Pittsburgh and began her career at the Federal Reserve Board in Washington, D.C., covering monetary policy and financial institutions. Following five years at the Fed, she joined the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae) as director of financial economics and moved to Canada in 1983 to become Chief Economist at Burns Fry.
