Biography
Thomas Ernest Woods Jr., born August 1, 1972, is an American author, podcast host, and libertarian commentator. He is a senior fellow at the Mises Institute and a proponent of the Austrian School of economics. He hosts The Tom Woods Show and previously co-hosted the weekly podcast Contra Krugman.
His books include The Politically Incorrect Guide to American History (2004) and Meltdown (2009), both New York Times bestsellers. The former presents American history from a paleoconservative perspective, characterized by some writers as pro-Confederate; the latter examines the 2008 financial crisis. His later writing promotes libertarianism and libertarian-leaning political figures, including Ron Paul. Woods also teaches Western civilization and government through The Liberty Homeschooler, part of the Ron Paul Curriculum.
