Ralph Nader

Ralph Nader
A prominent advocate for consumer protection, Ralph Nader built his career around fighting questionable business and government practices on behalf of the American public. Nader gained national recognition for his muckraking book about the automobile industry, entitled Unsafe at Any Speed (1965; revised ed. 1972). Funded by his writings and speeches, and from foundation grants and contributions, Nader has examined health, safety, and equity concerns in areas such as meat and poultry, coal mines, natural gas, energy, tax reform, and health care.
