A long-time economics professor at Princeton, Ben S. Bernanke became the nation's chief banker as chairman of Federal Reserve System in February of 2006. Critics say he was slow to react to the market meltdown, but Bernanke has led some of the most interventionist and controversial Fed actions in its history.
