From finding the “secret sauce” at the intersection of cooking, leadership, and accounting, to sharing the inspiring story of a family’s autism journey, to exploring how anthropology can provide clues to consumer behavior, faculty members at the Gabelli School of Business have combined their academic expertise with their personal passions to create compelling new books. Their diverse interests and output inform and enrich the Gabelli School community, as well as audiences on a national and global scale, providing insights and expertise across subject areas.

Join us on April 17 for a conversation with faculty authors Donna Rapaccioli, Ph.D., University professor and dean emerita; John Fortunato, Ph.D., professor of communications and media management; and Timothy de Waal Malefyt, Ph.D., clinical professor and director of the M.S. in Strategic Marketing Communications. The discussion will be moderated by Lerzan Aksoy, Ph.D. dean and George N. Jean Ph.D. chair and professor of marketing at the Gabelli School of Business, and will delve into the inspiration behind each of these unique works.

A book signing and celebratory reception will follow.
