John Landry – Ghostwriter

I'm a longtime ghostwriter specializing in business and economics, as well as writing company histories.

Overview

I was an editor at Harvard Business Review for many years, and before that gained a Ph.D. in history with a focus on the American economy and business. I've worked with many executives, consultants, and business scholars to develop and express their ideas, in blogs, articles, and books. I've also written or co-authored several company histories.

I believe in collaboration and iteration, where I learn enough from the client that we together present their ideas and perspectives. I bring a strong background in business and economics, including an appreciation for how individual companies and economies really work, along with skills in writing and project management.
