Roth appears regularly on national cable television networks including Fox Business, CNBC, CNN, Fox News and MSNBC.[1][2] She was one of the judges on Mark Burnett's America's Greatest Makers television show and is a weekly panelist on the current events and business show Bulls & Bears.[3] She was the host of WGN Radio's The Noon Show, and author of three books, including two New York Times bestsellers.[4][5] As a self-styled "recovering" Investment Banker, she has completed more than $2 billion in capital raising, mergers & acquisitions and related transactions and invests in private companies.[6][7]

Early life

Roth was born in the northern suburbs of Chicago, Illinois and attended Deerfield High School. Her father Bernie was a retired union electrician (died in May 2013).[8] Her parents divorced while she was in high school, and her mother Sheri died from leukemia in 1998,[9] as did her step-mother from lung cancer in 2004.

Book

Roth released her first book, The Entrepreneur Equation, in 2010. The book, which was listed on The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestseller lists,[5][13] won an Axiom Gold Medal Business book award.[14][15] Reviewers particularly focused on the book's direct tone and highlight Roth's "reality checks" for readers.[16][17][18][19] Initially, there was a controversy with buyers over the book's cover, which featured a picture of her, but she insisted on keeping it.[20]

An action figure of Roth was created as a marketing prop to coincide with the release of The Entrepreneur Equation.[21]

Roth's second book was The War on Small Business, chronicling the government's response to COVID and the epic transfer of wealth from Main Street to Wall Street that happened as a result of government policies.[22]

Roth's most recent book, You Will Own Nothing, again making the The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Publisher's Weekly and USA Today bestseller lists, looks at the forces holding back wealth creation opportunities for the middle class in America and around the world, and the often tyrannical forces pushing to curb wealth and freedoms as the global financial order shifts.[23][24][25]
