Research edit

Since 2001, he has authored, co-authored, edited, or co-edited twenty books on topics including banks and banking, book publishing, construction, corporations, corporate genealogy, and corporate governance, economic indicators, entrepreneurship, government bailouts, insurance, money and monetary policy, public debts, public policies, and securities markets.[6]

Wright is a board member of Historians Against Slavery, an NGO.[8] He edits its books series with Cambridge University Press,[9] "Slaveries Since Emancipation,"[10] and serves on HAS's public speakers bureau.[11] He is also associated with the Museum of American Finance.[12]

Wright taught at New York University's Stern School of Business from 2003 until 2009. Before that, Wright taught economics at the University of Virginia,[13] where he worked with Virginia economist Ron Michener in a dispute against Dr. Farley Grubb, an economist at the University of Delaware, over the nature of colonial and early U.S. money and monetary systems.[14][15]
