Gregg Robins

Gregg Robins is passionate about democratic values, justice, respect for fellow human beings, and as much laughter as possible. A native New Yorker, who hails proudly from the Bronx, and now a longtime Swiss resident, Gregg is an author of fiction and non-fiction works. He recently released his first children’s book, “Silenzio, Sound the Alarm!” He is also a singer-songwriter, and especially proud of his song “Morning in America,” released in 2008 to mark Barack Obama’s historic election victory. Founder of Robins Advising, Gregg once dropped out of the Bronx High School of Science before eventually receiving a PhD from Oxford University, where he was a Marshall Scholar. Gregg is the proud father of three millennial daughters – Gabriella, Casey, and Raquel - and he currently lives in Geneva, Switzerland, with his wife, Karen.
