Ben Bernanke (bur-NANG'-kee) is an American economist who is the current Chairman of the Federal Reserve, nominated by President George W. Bush in 2005 to succeed Alan Greenspan. At first, Bernanke was widely perceived as having less power over Wall Street than Greenspan even after Greenspan's retirement, but Bernanke is starting to come into his own and having more influence.
