Confusion between economists: Lawrence H. White and Lawrence J. White
[edit]There are two economists with the same first and last name:
Lawrence H. White - the subject of this page
Lawrence J. White - a professor at NYU's Stern School of Business
Here is the web page for L J White: http://www.stern.nyu.edu/faculty/bio/lawrence-white
There is, no surprise, some confusion about which is which. At the moment, a google search on the name without the middle initial or with either middle initial generates a google card with information about L H White and a picture of L J White, which of course makes the confusion worse.
It would help resolve the confusion if a biography page were added to wikipedia for Lawrence J White and a disambiguation page for the two of them.
My sense is that L J White is at least as prominent as L H White, so it would be appropriate to have pages on both of them. However, I'm a colleague of Lawrence J White, so perhaps I do not have the neutral POV required to make this call.
Hence, I'm writing here to suggest that someone consider adding a page for L J White.

More on avoiding confusion
[edit]It would also help avoid confusion if this entry on L H White included a picture. Here is a page that has one:
