Founders

CHAPTER

Mark Rich's First Job

Mark Rich was famously secretive. You couldn't even find a picture of this guy. It wasn't until near the end of his life that he finally agrees to sit down with the author, who's actually a business editor of a highly regarded Swiss weekly newspaper. And so we're going to hear a lot directly from Mark. In order to achieve his ambitions, he traded with anyone who would trade with him. Be they dictators or Democrats, communists or capitalists.
