Gail Tverberg

Frequent writer and speaker on issues related to oil, other fossil fuels, and the economy. My article "Oil Supply Limits and the Continuing Financial Crisis," is to be published in the peer-reviewed journal Energy shortly. I am currently writing a book covering similar topics to the aforementioned paper, under contract with the publisher Springer. I am on the Editorial Board of the energy web site "The Oil Drum," and frequently publish articles there under the pseudonym "Gail the Actuary." I also have my own web site, "Our Finite World."

My back ground is financial. I worked for many years as a casualty actuary in the insurance industry. I started writing about how limited oil supply would affect the insurance industry in 2006, and left the insurance industry in 2007, to write more generally about these issues.
