Richard McCormack is the editor and publisher of Manufacturing & Technology News, a publication he created in 1994. As a Washington, D.C. based journalist, he has covered science, technology, industry and government for 26 years, specializing in economic competitiveness and globalization.
Richard is the editor of Manufacturing a Better Future for America which argues that there has never been a more critical time to rebuild the foundation of America’s economy. But manufacturing in America is in serious decline, with over 40,000 factory closures and more than five million jobs lost over the last decade alone.
How can the United States industrial sector be revived?
The Alliance for American Manufacturing– an innovative partnership of the United Steelworkers union and leading U.S. manufacturers– asked some of the brightest minds in America for their ideas. ‘Manufacturing a Better Future for America’ details the challenges and opportunities the country faces at this critical time: trade policy, skills and training, research and development, national security, supply chains, new technology, and globalization.
