Michael Pillsbury
Michael Pillsbury is the Director of the Center on Chinese Strategy, Hudson Institute, Washington, D.C. from 2014. Pillsbury is a former government official who served in the Defense Department and the Senate staff and has been recognized by President Trump in public at the White House as the authority on China and is the author of three books on China. The most recent one, The Hundred-Year Marathon was number one on the Washington Post list and a selection of the Commander, U.S. Special Operations Command, Commanders Reading List, in 2017. On September 26, 2018 U.S. President, Donald Trump, described Michael Pillsbury as "the leading authority on China." On November 30, 2018 The New York Times, Politico and Bloomberg articles asserted Michael Pillsbury's importance of being one of Trump's top advisers on China." According to The New York Times, Mr. Pillsbury’s book 'The Hundred-Year Marathon: China’s Secret Strategy to Replace America as the Global Superpower' has become a lodestar for those in the West Wing pushing for a more forceful response to the threat that China's rise poses to the United States."
