Kamenetz grew up in Baton Rouge and New Orleans and graduated from Benjamin Franklin High School and Yale College in 2002. ==Reviews of ''Generation Debt''== ''Generation Debt'' argues that student loans, credit card debt, the changing job market, and fiscal irresponsibility imperil the future economic prospects of the current generation, which is the first American generation not to do better financially than their parents. Some critics of ''Generation Debt'' have held that Kamenetz is not critical enough of her own perspective. A writer at ''Slate'' wrote, "It's not that the author misdiagnose() ills that affect our society. It's just that () lack() the perspective to add any great insight." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Anya Kamenetz」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
