I'm a journalist and author. My next book is RETAIL GANGSTER: The Insane, Real-Life Story of Crazy Eddie, which will be published by Hachette Books on August 23, 2022.

My previous books were AYN RAND NATION: The Hidden Struggle for America's Soul (St. Martin's Press: Feb. 28, 2012), Wall Street Versus America (Portfolio: 2006) and Born to Steal (Warner Books: 2003).

I was an investigative reporter at BusinessWeek for many years, and was a contributing editor at Condé Nast Portfolio and a columnist at Portfolio.com; I've written for the Daily Beast, Parade magazine, The New York Times, the Big Money, the Globe and Mail and other publications. I also was an adjunct professor at the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism.

“He was low-key and stating the obvious, but it was necessary because Rand's dogma is predicated on ignoring the obvious.”
Gary Weiss, Ayn Rand Nation: The Hidden Struggle for America's Soul

“What I was seeing here is a perennial issue for Ayn Rand followers—the need to finesse aspects of her teachings that make no sense, or seem superficially coherent but crumble upon even cursory examination.”
Gary Weiss, Ayn Rand Nation: The Hidden Struggle for America's Soul

“Rand was willing to wipe out reality,' said Iris.”
Gary Weiss, Ayn Rand Nation: The Hidden Struggle for America's Soul
