Rose Friedman

Rose Friedman, born director (* December 1910 or 1911 in Czartorysk, Volhynia, then Russia, now Ukraine; † August 18, 2009 in Davis, California ) was an American economist. She was married since 1938 with Milton Friedman ( 1912-2006 ) and got him two children, a daughter and today's legal scholars David D. Friedman.

When she was two years old, her family immigrated to the United States, mainly because they had experienced anti-Semitism in Russia. Just like her husband, she was a studied economist and wrote him books. She was just like Milton as a great advocate of the free market economy and supported the education voucher model. Unlike her husband, she supported the Iraq war of 2003. She was also otherwise known as a supporter of the Republican Party and fierce opponent of the Democrats.
