atrios

Dr. Duncan Black, known under his internet publishing pseudonym as Atrios, is the author of the popular liberal weblog Eschaton, which receives an average of over 100,000 hits per day. He is also a regular commentator on Air America Radio's The Majority Report, and lives in Philadelphia. He holds a PhD in economics from Brown University. He previously worked at the London School of Economics, the Universit catholique de Louvain, the University of California at Irvine, and recently, Bryn Mawr College. Black is now a Senior Fellow at the liberal media research group, Media Matters for America. For a long time Atrios, who apparently emerged from the Internet forums of The WELL, remained pseudonymous and joked that he was actually a high school gym teacher. However, during the 2004 Democratic National Convention in Boston, he revealed that he had accepted a job at Media Matters for America and allowed his name and photo to be published.
