He received his bachelor's and master's degrees from New York University before obtaining his doctorate from the University of Pennsylvania.

In the mid-20th century, Cochran was one of the most significant economic historians of the United States, producing The Age of Enterprise (1961), an important work on the history of American capitalism. Throughout his career, he attempted to examine the history of business not merely as a narrowly economic topic, but also as a cultural one.
