James Abruzzo began his career as a classical pianist. What he learned shaped everything that followed. He has worked for more than four decades at the center of the world’s great cultural institutions, advising orchestras, museums, and ballet companies across Europe and the Americas on leadership, governance, and the decisions that determine whether an institution endures. He was the co-founder of the Institute for Ethical Leadership at Rutgers Business School and held graduate faculty positions at Columbia, Bocconi, and the Free University of Berlin. He knows what it costs artists to dedicate a life to something larger than themselves. Fefè is his first novel.

I am a retired academic who published two academic books and many journal articles. Since retirement I have been writing philosophical and realistic fiction. My first novel, which I published myself, was translated into Italian and published in Italy. I have a book that I am just completing now, but would like to have an agent.
