Harry Browne (June 17, 1933 - ) is an United
States|American free-market
Libertarianism|Libertarian writer and investment
analyst.

He was born in New York City to Bradford and Cecil
Margaret Browne and now resides in Franklin,
Tennessee.

Browne was the presidential candidate of the
United States Libertarian Party in 1996 and 2000. 
He was an investment advisor for thirty years and
is currently Director of Public Policy for the
libertarian Downsize DC Foundation.

Harry Browne came to prominence in 1970 with his
first book, How You Can Profit From The Coming
Devaluation, which correctly predicted the
devaluation of the dollar and subsequent
inflation. Browne's second book was 1973's How I
Found Freedom In An Unfree World, which focused on
maximizing personal liberty.  This book became an
instant classic in libertarian circles.  You Can
Profit from a Monetary Crisis was Browne's third
book and reached #1 on the New York Times
bestseller list.  He continued to author books and
articles on investing through the late 1990s.

Claims of wrongdoing within Browne's 1996
presidential campaign surfaced during his second
run in 2000.  In 2001, it was revealed that Perry
Willis had worked on behalf of Browne's 1996
campaign while serving as national director of the
Libertarian Party.  To avoid potential conflicts
of interest, party policy prohibits any party
staffer from working for a campaign before a
nominee is officially decided.  After an
investigation, the party leadership

Willis and admonished Browne, who has

responded in detail to allegations surrounding the
controversy.

More recently, Harry Browne has continued working
to increase the popularity of libertarian goals to
reduce the size and scope of government. In
addition to writing and making appearances on
behalf of the Downsize DC Foundation, he currently
hosts two weekly network
http://www.harrybrowne.org/Radio.htm radio shows;
one on Saturdays dealing with politics, and the
other on Sundays dealing with financial topics.
Browne also works with the Free Market News
Network, of which he is currently the President.
Via Free Market News, he has his own
internet-based television show called This Week In
Liberty. He's also currently working on a book
called The War Racket, but has stated that the
book is not near completion, with no definite
publishing date.
