The American Interest show

Summary: Relevant Reading: Red Notice: A True Story of High Finance, Murder, and One Mans Fight for Justice Bill Browder Good evening, listeners! We have a real treat for you this week as we invite onto the show Bill Browder, founder and CEO of Hermitage Capital Management and author of the newly-released book Red Notice: A True Story of High Finance, Murder, and One Mans Fight for Justice. Browder takes us through his incredible story, from the heady days at Hermitage Capital in a newly capitalistic Russia to Moscows eventual souring. He recounts the harrowing ordeal of his lawyer, Sergei Magnitsky, whose sadistic mistreatment at the hands of his jailers eventually led to his cruel death in 2009. Browder discusses his subsequent quest for justice and the eventual signing of the Magnitsky Act. Dont miss this show or this book—Browders tale is as chilling as it is well-told.
