Lawrence Hartman is the author of: (i) BLIND GREED: From Ivy League to International Fugitive, (ii) BLIND JUSTICE: The Consequences of Greed, (iii) THE HAPPINESS PRINCIPLE: Your Key to Happiness, and (iv) GUILTY TILL PROVEN INNOCENT: A Shocking Inside View Into America’s Failing Justice System. He has also been featured in articles on Forbes.com, including “The Life of a White-Collar Fugitive Not All That It's Cracked Up To Be” and “A Voice From Prison Weighs In On Drug Addiction And A Solution.” Mr. Hartman was born and raised in the suburbs of New York City. He graduated from the prestigious Columbia University School of Law where he wrote and served as an editor for the Columbia Business Law Review. From there he rose up the ranks at a couple of major Wall Street law firms while writing and producing an off-Broadway play entitled "Seeing Double,” starring former New York Giants’ star running back Tiki Barber and the Double Down Twins from the smash hit indie movie "Swingers.” Those dreams, however, got sidetracked when he landed a coveted position as Vice President and General Counsel of a publicly traded real estate company, during which time he published two technical articles in the Real Estate Finance Review. That, in turn, led to founding an offshore hedge fund where he developed business plans and websites for over a dozen public companies. This successful new venture unfortunately also led to a massive 36 count indictment and a week’s worth of coverage as the lead news story throughout Central America. Mr. Hartman spent his time reading, writing and reflecting while playing jailhouse lawyer during his 10-year sentence, in search of redemption. During this time he helped dozens of hard-luck inmates in need of a break, much like Tim Robbins in The Shawshank Redemption and made valuable use of his time creating Blind Greed, Blind Justice, The Happiness Principle and Guilty Till Proven Innocent among other projects.
