About Ken Sweet
After taking an academic year off at Columbia University as a Knight-Bagehot Fellow, I return to The Associated Press a more skilled journalist, and a better writer. Before the fellowship, I spent 10 years with AP as their banking reporter. I\'ve now covered three to four financial panics or crises, seen dozens of banks fail, watched technology companies become more like banks and watched the world become obsessed with credit cards, points and perks. There will be plenty to write about, so stay tuned.
