Neil Shulman, M.D., is the author of more than thirty books for readers of all ages. His adult fiction includes What? Dead...Again?, which was made into the 1991 Michael J. Fox movie, "Doc Hollywood." Some of his medical books ( such as The Black Man's Guide to Good Health and The Real Truth About Aging) have improved the quality of life of thousands of readers. Others (such as 101 Ways to Know if You're a Nurse) heal with laughter. Neal's books for children include Don't Be Afraid of the Dentist; Kid Power: The Great Face-Off!; and What's In a Doctor's Bag? He is a past president of the Patch Adams nonprofit organization (the Gesundheit Institute), and is also a highly sought-after speaker for Fortune 500 companies and other large audiences. He devotes much of his time to charitable causes and finding ways to improve the lives of others.
"I've had the opportunity to have friends who are very poor and friends who are billionaires," Neil says. "I've learned a lot from both groups, especially the ones who are caring, ethical human beings. The characters in The Corporate Kid are fictitious; however, the lessons I've learned from my remarkable friends have helped me in the writing of this book. Any resemblance between characters in the book and real folks is purely coincidental."
