Otto Eckstein, 1927-1984

German-born Harvard economist and
developer of large-scale macroeconometric
models (for which he founded a forecasting corporation, Data Resources Inc. (DRI)).
Eckstein introduced the concept of
"core" inflation (i.e. general price inflation minus the
price movements of particularly volatile commodities (e.g. oil) and foodstuffs).
He was on the Council of Economic Advisors
from 1964 to 1966.
