Gregg S. Robins

Gregg Robins has a passion for creating. A native of the Bronx, New York, Gregg traveled a journey from high school dropout to Oxford University PhD, where he was a Marshall Scholar. He attended Rice University in Houston, Texas, for his undergraduate studies, observing that Texas was the first foreign country he had visited. An American Abroad in Geneva, Switzerland, and now a Swiss citizen as well, he has spent decades traveling in and working with Russia. He is the father of three accomplished daughters, Gabriella, Casey and Raquel.

As an author, he has developed his craft through storytelling and humour, both important aspects of his personality and approach to life. His two most recent published works are quite different – the children’s story, “Silenzio, Sound the Alarm!” which tells the adventure of an alarm clock with a conscience, and the political satire “A Patient Man Named Joe Watched Trump Refuse To Go…,” a collection of limericks inspired by the US elections and political transition of 2020-2021. The common threads are a focus on doing the right thing and recognising the merits of being true to our values, as well as the healing properties of humor. Gregg’s recent books represent a new direction in his writing, as compared to his ongoing publications in the areas of business, markets, and policy.
