Eric Lindner is an attorney and a Washington, D.C. native. He holds a BBA from George Washington University, a joint JD-MBA from The University of Chicago, and currently teaches graduate business ethics at Georgetown University. His business background (he sold his company in 2011) includes work with domestic and international airports, the FAA, the Coast Guard, and Lockheed. His avid interest in the Cold War, sparked by his mother’s tenure at the CIA (she was hired in 1948), has included not only extensive reading but also visits to many of its key flash-points, including Moscow, Leningrad, Budapest, Prague, and Berlin.

Lindner is also a proven interviewer. In Hospice Voices: Lessons for Living at the End of Life (Rowman & Littlefield, 2013), his ability to elicit confessions and other intimate, never-before-known details about long-ago events was praised by leading doctors and caregivers, as well as the BBC, AARP, Publisher’s Weekly, The Washington Independent Review of Books, and Booklist’s Rebecca Vnuk, who included it in her Top 5 memoirs of the year.
