Autorenporträt
Edwin Lefevre (1871–1943) was an American journalist, writer, and diplomat best known for his writings on financial markets and trading. Often credited with providing insightful observations into the mechanics and psychology of the investment world, Lefevre is perhaps most famous for his semi-autobiographical work 'Reminiscences of a Stock Operator' (1923), which focuses on the life of the legendary securities trader Jesse Livermore and is considered a classic in the genre of market literature. Another notable work by Lefevre is 'The Plunderers' (1912), which delves into corporate and financial malfeasance, illustrating the timeless nature of market speculation and exploitation. His literary contributions are characterized by a narrative prowess that blends storytelling with an astute understanding of market dynamics, rendered in a conversational and accessible style. Lefevre's work remains pertinent to students of both literature and finance, offering a window into the world of early 20th-century Wall Street. In addition to his writing career, Lefevre served as an American Ambassador to Italy during the Herbert Hoover administration. His legacy is that of a keen observer of the human elements underpinning economic actions and the often-irrational behavior of market participants.
