    This is a useful resource because it is a concise biography about Milton Friedman. It includes his life and what he believe, or his teachings. It also has different sections about things going on in the world and how he was effected by them.

    This article is a short summary of Milton Friedman's life. This article
    focuses on his awards and accomplishments. It names many of the books and essays
    he has written. This article is helpful because it simply lists of his
