About The Author

Michelle Caruso-Cabrera is an award-winning financial television journalist whose career spans 20 years. She’s interviewed the world’s most compelling newsmakers. From one of the richest men in the world -- Carlos Slim - to one of the most despised dictators - Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez. She’s covered corporate mergers and scandals and has the inside take on too many CEOs to count. Her relentless pursuit of Wall Street’s biggest stories makes her one of CNBC top presenters. She questions government interference in social policy and hammers everyone she interviews about the need for fiscal conservative. Her following includes like-minded thinkers who are educated, wealthy and powerful.

Michelle can be seen everyday by finances’ biggest brokers and millions of Americans on her show -- right in the middle of the trading day. She also reports for NBC Nightly News and Telemundo. After years of experience, she has a deeply entrenched network of contacts that bring her to the center of every story that breaks on Wall Street. Her address book reads like a who’s who of business titans and she is integrated into their world, providing her intimate access. It was through these contacts she broke the story that Ezra Merkin had to resign as Chairman of GMAC because of his ties to Bernie Madoff.

Michelle’s career started as a stringer for the New York Times and from there she went on to be an investigative reporter in Miami and Tampa. Michelle is a graduate of Wellesley College where she received a degree in economics.
