Description

Welcome to the Strand Review of Books, and welcome to Stacy Spikes, author of Black Founder, The Hidden Power of Being an Outsider.

Among many other things, Stacy founded MoviePass, with its own tumultuous journey – and story of the rise and fall and rise again is worth every cent for the book. HBO made a documentary about the MoviePass story, and was even nominated for an Emmy, and was the second-most watched item after Dune on HBO last summer.

Black Founder, The Hidden Power of Being an Outsider, is an inspiring rollercoaster story from someone who really has been there. Somehow Stacy has squeezed into just 270 or so pages -available from Amazon and all good bookshops.
