## Bio

Born February 4, 1953, in Washington, D.C., Powell moved from Princeton and Georgetown Law into five years as an attorney before pivoting to investment banking in the mid-1980s. He made partner at the Carlyle Group in 1997, left in 2005 to start his own firm, Severn Capital Partners, then spent two years at the Bipartisan Policy Center. His first public-service turn came in 1990 under George H. W. Bush at Treasury. Barack Obama named him to the Federal Reserve Board in 2012, where he earned a reputation as a consensus-builder. Donald Trump elevated him to chair in 2018; Joe Biden renewed the appointment in 2021. He held the role through the COVID crash, the 2021–2023 inflation spike, and wild swings in global trade, presiding over broad market gains punctuated by sharp drops in 2020 and 2022. The scale of his monetary stimulus opened a gap between Wall Street's performance and Main Street's experience, splitting public opinion on what he delivered.
