Charley Ellis is the founder of Greenwich Associates, author of sixteen investment books, and now a three-time guest on the show. The bookends of his published library - his seminal book,\\xa0Investment Policy,\\xa0and most recent work,\\xa0The Index Revolution, discuss the case for indexing for most investors.
Yet one of Charley\\u2019s most longstanding and passionate engagements proved the exception to the rule \\u2013 his decade and a half of service on Yale University\\u2019s Investment Committee, including nine years as Chair. Charley and I first met about twenty-five years ago in that capacity, and he\\u2019s occupied a front row seat to Yale\\u2019s success ever since.

With the recent passing of David Swensen, we decided to sit down and reminisce about David in a conversational tribute to the investor, man, and leader we both so greatly admired. We discuss Yale\\u2019s Investment Committee, roster of managers, investment team, and the unique aspects that made David great. We also touch on Charley\\u2019s latest book, the 8th edition of his seminal classic.
