...taking creative license with her driver's license, is writing Ana's Story: A Journey of Hope, a nonfiction book due this fall about a 17-year-old single mother who is HIV-positive.

Economics, which could only nominate three faculty members for the two-year, $45,000 award, is home to half of Harvard’s Sloan fellows this year. Two neuroscientists and a physicist round out the Harvard portion of the 116 names on the 2007 Sloan fellow roster. Fryer, an associate professor, couldn’t contain his excitement when asked about the $45,000 sum. “Is that how much it is? Wow. Cool. I still have not gotten over the shock of winning...
