WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Alan Greenspan has died at the age of 100.
He died on Monday from complications of Parkinson's Disease, according to his wife, Andrea Mitchell.
In his 18½ years at the helm of the Fed, Greenspan presided over a sustained era of American growth and prosperity, yet one that ended with devastating consequences in 2008, two years after he had left the central bank.
