Betrayal: The Life and Lies of Bernie Madoff

"Accurate and highly readable."

--Wall Street Journal

Emmy award-winning journalist Andrew Kirtzman, explores "The Life and Lies of Bernie Madoff" in Betrayal--an in-depth, personal look at the architect of the biggest financial fraud in history. The New York Times calls Betrayal, "a novelistic, you-are-there sort of narrative," and the shocking story of the King of the Swindlers--and his hundreds of celebrity and corporation victims, and the everyday people who tragically invested their life savings with him--does indeed read like a page-turning thriller. But it's all amazingly, disturbingly true.

Andrew Kirtzman has written a biography of Rudy Giuliani, covered more than a dozen national political campaigns for print and television, and hosted two of New York's most widely watched public affairs shows. In September 1999, Brill's Content magazine named Kirtzman one of New York's 10 Most Influential Journalists. In 2003, his week-in-review feature Kirtzman's Column won an Emmy Award for outstanding political programming.
