William K Black , J.D., Ph.D. is Associate Professor of Law and Economics at the University of Missouri-Kansas City. Bill Black has testified before the Senate Agricultural Committee on the regulation of financial derivatives and House Governance Committee on the regulation of executive compensation. He was interviewed by Bill Moyers on PBS, which went viral. He gave an invited lecture at UCLAâ??s Hammer Institute which, when the video was posted on the web, drew so many â??hitsâ? that it crashed the UCLA server. He appeared extensively in Michael Mooreâ??s most recent documentary: â??Capitalism: A Love Story.â? He was featured in the Obama campaign release discussing Senator McCainâ??s role in the â??Keating Five.â? (Bill took the notes of that meeting that led to the Senate Ethics investigation of the Keating Five. His testimony was highly critical of all five Senatorsâ?? actions.) He is a frequent guest on local, national, and international television and radio and is quoted as an expert by the national and international print media nearly every week. He was the subject of featured interviews in Newsweek, Barronâ??s, and Village Voice.
He is the author of The Best Way to Rob a Bank is to Own One, and câ??founder of Bank Whistleblowers United.
