New York, NY – The Manhattan Institute is pleased to welcome Judge Glock as senior fellow and director of research. Glock, already a contributing editor at City Journal, joins the Institute from the Cicero Institute, where he served as senior director of policy and research.

In collaboration with senior fellow Stephen Eide, Glock will also contribute to the institute’s influential work on homelessness, serious mental illness, and substance abuse.
“Judge has emerged as one of America’s most incisive policy thinkers,” said Reihan Salam, president of the Manhattan Institute. “Drawing on his deep understanding of U.S. economic development and the changing role of the regulatory state, he has enriched public discourse with groundbreaking policy ideas on issues ranging from federal tax policy to urban crime. We are delighted to welcome Judge to the Institute, and to work alongside him to restore the economic vitality and civic health of America and its great cities.”
