The team that helps President Biden realize his economic goals are all experienced professionals who worked in the administration.

President Joe Biden has vowed to revive the US economy from the pandemic with a series of stimulus measures, including emergency relief as well as investments in green jobs, infrastructure and more.

He brought together a team of leading economists and lawyers with political experience to make his vision a reality.

The task they now face is even more serious, with more than 10 million Americans lost their jobs and the pandemic taking more lives than World War II.

Here are the prominent faces in Biden's economic rescue team.

Finance Minister Janet Yellen

Yellen, a 74-year-old economist, graduated from Brown and Yale Universities and has also taught at the University of California at Berkeley, was the first woman to lead the Treasury Department in 231 years of its history.

Yellen is credited with helping bring the US economy out of recession more than a decade ago by pushing the Central Bank to focus on issues like inequality.

Now, Yellen will take on the role of overseeing everything from tariffs and financial regulations to sanctions, serving as the man to make President Biden's call for more government spending.

In a letter to the Senate to urge the process of confirming her office, 14 former US finance ministers said in the current context, "it is difficult to find a better candidate" Yellen.

Brian Deese - Head of National Economic Council

At 42, Deese will be the youngest person in American history to head the National Economic Council, responsible for formulating and coordinating government economic policies.

Deese has put his name on the rescue of the US auto industry in the financial crisis 2007 - 2008. He was later trusted with assignments in other areas, from building financial regulations, solving

Some left-wing officials say Deese, who served as a director of sustainable investment at financial giant Blackrock before joining the government, is too friendly with Wall Street and too worried about a deepening.

But he also has notable supporters.

President Obama also did not regret his praise in 2016 when referring to Deese's efforts to promote the completion of the Paris greenhouse gas agreement.

Deese "helped save the planet while raising two children at home and no one could do any better," the former US president at the time told Rolling Stone magazine.

Neera Tanden - Head of Office of Management and Budget

Tanden will face the daunting task of making policy priorities a reality through the federal budget.

Former head of the Center for American Progress, a liberal-minded research institute based in Washington, Tanden, 50, will now be the first woman of color, and also American-American.

When announcing Tanden's nomination, President Biden remarked that her childhood, raised by a single mother and reliant on support programs, would help Tanden better understand the role of supervisor.

Tanden is a graduate of Yale University Law School, has been involved in health reform efforts under President Obama and longtime aide of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

Cecilia Rouse - President of Economic Advisory Council

Rouse, an economist at Princeton University whose face was chosen by President Biden as Chairman of the American Economic Advisory Council, has made a name for himself when working on inequality issues and its intersection.

Rouse's most famous research shows that hidden auditions increase the number of female artists recruited into orchestras.

Rouse, 57, isn't just entrenched in the "scholarly ivory tower", however.

US Trade Representative Katherine Tai

Tai will become America's top trade negotiator, leading the agency she used to work with as a lawyer specializing in handling US complaints about Chinese trade.

She left the Chamber of Commerce in 2014 but is still engaged in commercial affairs as an adjunct to the Democrats in parliament.

Tai garnered much praise for helping negotiate labor rights clauses in addition to a trade deal between the US, Canada and Mexico under President Trump.

In the new role, Tai will likely focus on China, where her parents were born and where she taught English in the 1990s.

Tai once remarked that the Trump administration's economic strategy relied too much on "defensive" measures, such as tariff barriers.

"Proactive attack is what we need to do to protect ourselves, our workers, the US industries and our allies more quickly, more quickly ... and above all to protect the background.
