By Special to the Sun | August 7, 2008
In an effort to overcome a looming budget crisis, Governor Paterson is putting together an economic advisory panel featuring an all-star cast of business leaders.
The panel, composed of about a dozen members, will be led by Joseph Stiglitz, a Nobel Prize-winning economist at Columbia University and former senior vice president of the World Bank.
Other panel members include Robert Rubin, who served as U.S. Treasury secretary under President Clinton; Steven Rattner, a managing principle of the Quadrangle investment group, and Roger Altman, a prominent investment banker who served as deputy Treasury secretary in the 1990s.
