Gillian Tett is the chairman of the editorial board and editor-at-large, US, at the Financial Times. Perhaps best known for predicting the 2007-8 financial crisis, Tett's bestselling book Fool's Gold was one of the definitive books on the crash.
Tett holds a PhD in social anthropology from the University of Cambridge, where she studied marriage rituals in Tajikistan. Her work for the FT has taken her around the world - from Brussels to Tokyo to Moscow to New York - and won her numerous awards, including Columnist, Journalist and Business Journalist of the Year at the British Press Awards.
