We all start somewhere, and sometimes that “somewhere” is a little rougher than average. Michael Green grew up in Baltimore in the Projects, where the generally accepted attitude was “our kind of people don’t…” (you fill in the blank, but usually it’s “make money”, etc). Mike’s life was on a bad track, and when he ended up in prison at 17 he actually came across the book that changed his whole life trajectory. (trust me, you want to listen in)
