David L. Dodd

David L. Dodd (1895–1988) was an American economist and investor who spent his career at Columbia Business School, rising from instructor to full professor of finance and serving as associate dean. As a young colleague of Benjamin Graham, he took the notes on Graham's lectures that became the basis for Security Analysis, the 1934 text they wrote together. He retired from Columbia in 1961 as professor emeritus of finance.
