Feb. 2 (UPI) -- Outgoing Federal Reserve Chairwoman Janet Yellen won't be out of a job for long -- she's joining the Brookings Institution as a distinguished fellow next week, the organization announced Friday.
Yellen ends her four-year term as Fed chief Saturday, and by Monday she'll be taking up a post at the Washington, D.C.,-based economic think tank. She's following in the footsteps of her predecessor at the Fed, Ben Bernanke, who joined Brookings in 2014.
