Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Jamie Rosen has hatched some of his share of harebrained schemes. He bankrolled a friend to compete?ɬ?and win?ɬ? on television's Jeopardy. He wrote a semi-bogus restaurant guide to get free meals. He flew back and forth between New York and Boston on the Pan Am Shuttle nine times in one day in order to get frequent flier miles, which he used to visit Mongolia, where he unsuccessfully attempted to write the country's first travel guide. He dropped out of business school to start Comet Systems, where he proudly makes the world's best cursor customizing software. Amidst this cacophony of labor, Jamie somehow managed to graduate from Harvard. The LOOKOUT MEDIA team includes JAKE BROOKS, NICHOLAS CORMAN, CHUCK KAPELKE, SARA SMITH, and MICHELLE SULLIVAN. These wacky job experts all wrote for LET'S GO travel guides while at Harvard.
