Women and economists from minority groups are making significant contributions to the field of economics in an array of areas, from A {General Economics and Teaching} to Z1 {Cultural Economics; Economic Sociology; Economic Anthropology}. Prominent examples include President of the American Economic Association Claudia Goldin, 2012 NEA Westerfield Award winner William A. (Sandy) Darity Jr., Nobel Laureate Elinor Ostrom, Dean of the Woodrow Wilson School Princeton University Cecilia Rouse, and former Chair of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System Janet L. Yellen.
