September 30, 2010 - Charles Gasparino, award-winning author
Location: Renaissance Hotel 24 Public Square, Cleveland
Time: Opening Reception at 5:30, talk begins at 6:15. Coffee, cake and book signing to follow.
Charles Gasparino is an award-winning business journalist, on-air editor for CNBC, a columnist for the Daily Beast and the New York Post, and a freelance writer for Forbes and other publications. He previously wrote for Newsweek and the Wall Street Journal, where he covered issues on Wall Street, including pension funds, mutual funds, and regulatory issues. His current New York Times best-seller, The Sellout: How Wall Street Greed and Stupidity Destroyed America’s Dominance of the Global Financial System (Harper) is the definitive book on the current financial crisis in the United States and the events that led up to what is now being called “The Great Recession.” A sought after speaker at financial institutions, business conferences, and universities, he shares his inside knowledge of Wall Street and the world of finance to tell audiences how we plummeted into a Great Recession, what’s really going on with the economy, and what it means for the road ahead.
As the debate continues on whether we are coming out of The Great recession (now officially named) or not, Mr. Gasparino will add a fresh perspective and insight that our members and guests will find enlightening. It is an evening not to be missed.
