Friedman received the Nobel Memorial Prize for economic science in 1976 and has been a senior researcher at the Hoover Institution since 1977. He was awarded both the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the National Medal of Science in 1988. He was an informal economic advisor to President Nixon and a member of President Ronald Reagan?s Economic Policy Advisory Board (Milton Friedman).
