About

Christopher W. Shaw is an American historian, author, and policy analyst. In 2013, Shaw earned a PhD in history from the University of California, Berkeley. One of the primary focuses of his research has been the history of the United States Postal Service and its decline in recent decades, particularly due to the actions of Postmaster General Louis DeJoy. He was one of the first to recommend restarting postal banking in 2006, and has continued to promote this idea. Shaw is a project director at Ralph Nader's Center for Study of Responsive Law.
