毕业于哈佛大学法律专业，《时代》杂志资深撰稿人，曾是《时代》杂志首席科技作家。著有《The Perfect Store: Inside eBay》，并与人合著了关于关于Richard J Daley市长的传记《American Pharaoh》。 《无所畏惧》是作者在金融危机后，为美国领导人量身定做的危机解决读本。20世纪30年代，从美国华尔街开始的经济大萧条震动了全世界，罗斯福总统在美国几近崩溃的危机时刻实施新政，开创了现代美国。2008年，金融危机席卷全世界，这对受到重创的美国和总统奥巴马而言，无疑是巨大的挑战。 本书虽未就当下的金融危机开出药方，但是正如作者提醒我们的，罗斯福时代的经济难点——关于宏观调控、福利、农业政策和其他更多方面——今天仍然存在，因此，无论是美国读者还是中国读者，本书都大有裨益。
