A powerful story touched with family trauma, deprivation and adversity balanced by a life of hard work and philanthropy.
At the age of three, Ed Hajim is kidnapped by his father, driven cross-country, and told his mother is dead. His father soon abandons him in order to seek employment, leaving Hajim behind. This establishes a pattern of neglect and desertion that continues for Hajim’s entire childhood. The lonely boy learns the value of self-reliance and perseverance despite his financial deprivation and the trauma of being an orphan.
In a memoir filled with human drama, wisdom and timeless life lessons, On the Road Less Traveled: An Unlikely Journey from the Orphanage to the Boardroom tells the improbable story of how Hajim bounced from foster homes to orphanages, in a daily struggle to survive, to living the American dream as an accomplished Wall Street executive and model family man.
