Author Bio

Being an author, journalist, and public speaker demands a very busy schedule for Canadian author, Malcolm Gladwell. He has had six books on the New York Times bestsellers list and is a staff writer for The New Yorker. His books are: The Tipping Point, How Little Things Can Make a Big Difference, Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking, Outliers: The Story of Success, What the Dog Saw: And Other Adventures, David and Goliath: Underdogs, Misfits, and the Art of Battling Giants, and Talking to Strangers: What We Should Know About the People We Don't Know.

Malcolm often uses unexpected results of research in the social sciences and academic work. He interned with the National Journalism Center in Washington, DC in 1982. He then graduated with a Bachelor's degree in history from the University of Toronto in 1984.

Gladwell has been included in the prestigious Time 100 Most Influentual People list.
