Veteran speechwriter and communications strategist Dan Gerstein has been a champion of ghostwriters and collaborators for the past decade. As founder and CEO of Gotham Ghostwriters, an industry-leading agency that matches writers with clients seeking help telling (and selling!) their stories, he brings unique insight into what it takes to write a successful book, screenplay, white paper or family history. He comes by his work from an organic place. As a speechwriter and policy advisor to Sen. Joe Lieberman, and a contributing columnist for such publications as Forbes, The Wall Street Journal, and Politco, Dan was often asked by friends and colleagues to collaborate on a speech or position paper, and he found himself making referrals across his network of fellow scribes and political analysts. Those referrals led to a business—a business that in ten years has grown to support the work of over three thousand writers. Join us for a freewheeling conversation on the art and commerce of ghostwriting.
