Biography

Dylan Ratigan is a New York Times Best-Selling author, sustainability entrepreneur and the former host of MSNBC’s highest-rated, non-prime time show.

He resigned at MSNBC in 2012, on the eve of the Presidential Election in order to partner with returning veterans who went to war for global security and realized the path forward for global security is a revolution in global resource systems. Climate change and global conflict are the existential threat of our era. Ratigan left a comfortable life as a broadcaster to establish a construction and engineering firm to address this threat.

Prior to his three years at MSNBC, Dylan spent six years at CNBC, where he created “Fast Money,” co-hosted “The Closing Bell,” and was outspoken about the financial crisis leading up to his resignation in 2009, in the process becoming one of the most trusted names in broadcast journalism.

Before joining NBC in 2003, Dylan spent nine years at Bloomberg LP, serving as Global Managing Editor of Corporate Finance. Ratigan established the global group for the first time in Bloomberg’s history, in the process consolidating and supervising more than 120 reporters in more than 30 countries over 10 time zones.

Greedy Bastards was released in January 2012, spending five consecutive weeks on the New York Times Best Seller List. The book connects misaligned personal interests with misaligned systems, arguing that a critique of broken systems must also deliver a healing of our own relationships to create a foundation for natural, sustainable reforms.
