The Good Life of Murray N. Rothbard

In 1996 at the Mises Institute Supporters Summit in San Francisco, California, JoAnn "Joey" Rothbard spoke about her late husband, Murray.


Note: I never met Mrs. Rothbard and today is the first time I heard this clip, but it's clear why Murray married her. She was as sharp as a tack and shared Murray's wonderful gift of wit and humor.

  1. Folks who like this will also like Margit von Mises' ' My Years With Ludwig von Mises' available from the LvMI in physical or free audio book formats.

  5. Awesome speech, I only wish that it was longer. As somebody already noted, she does sound a lot like Murray.

  6. I can't imagine how great it must have been, to spend an evening at the Rothbard's.
