Writing (another) Book on Madoff
While newspapers and magazines have lined their pages with details of Bernie Madoff’s deceit, the literary world is still trying to cash in on the embezzlement drama. The sixth book on the life and times of the convicted Ponzi schemer hits bookstores today.
The book was penned by Sheryl Weinstein, former CEO of Hadassah, the Women’s Zionist Organization of America, and one of Madoff’s investors. We speak to Motoko Rich, who covers the publishing industry for The New York Times, along with author and journalist Erin Arvedlund, whose book ?Too Good to be True: The Rise and Fall of Bernie Madoff? just came out this month.
