"Mallaby's book may well be the most hilarious depiction of a big organization and its controversial boss since Michael Lewis's Liar's Poker." Mallaby published a history of the hedge-fund industry in More Money Than God: Hedge Funds and the Making of a New Elite (2010). Washington Post columnist Steve Pearlstein called it "the definitive history of the hedge fund industry, a compelling narrative full of larger-than-life characters and dramatic tales of their financial triumphs and reversals." It was the recipient of the 2011 Gerald Loeb Award, a finalist in the 2010 Financial Times and Goldman Sachs Business Book of the Year Award, and a 2010 New York Times bestseller. After five years of extensive research and in-person interviews, Mallaby's book The Man Who Knew: The Life and Times of Alan Greenspan was published in October 2016. A biography of former Fed Chair Alan Greenspan, The Man Who Knew was praised by Mervyn King, former Governor of the Bank of England, as "A fascinating and balanced study of arguably the most important figure of the post-war global financial scene." It won the 2016 Financial Times and McKinsey Business Book of the Year Award. In 2022, Mallaby published his fifth book, The Power Law: Venture Capital and the Making of the New Future, a history of the venture capital industry's development in the U.S. and globally over the last seven decades. Personal life Mallaby is married to the English journalist and Editor-in-Chief for The Economist, Zanny Minton Beddoes. They have four children.
