N. H. Katz

Neal H. Katz is a semi-retired, successful, serial entrepreneur, CEO with a passion for women rights.

The saga of Victoria Woodhull appeals to Neal, as it serves three purposes:

* First, the story provokes public awareness of the historical and continuing denigration and subjugation of gender prejudice.

* Second, the tale exposes the historical basis for the manipulation of the "free markets" of stocks, bonds and commodities.

* Third, the story shows how existing financial and political power structures used prison and seizure of assets to prevent innovation and social change.

Victoria Woodhull overcame all these obstacles in a remarkable life.

In addition, Neal has had to overcome many of the same trials and tribulations that confronted the sisters, Victoria and Tennessee. He believes in their motto: "Upward & Onward" and personally transforms challenges into positive manifestations. Neal often says, "We have so much more power than we allow ourselves to think. Create the life you want!"

Neal chose to write in first person using Victoria's words, thoughts, and point of view to tell the tale, inviting the reader to see through her eyes. He was directly inspired by Victoria.

Neal has pledged fifty percent (50%) of his author's royalties from book sales and all ancillary revenues, to a foundation formed in tribute to Victoria Woodhull and her passion for woman rights, or fund a like-minded existing program. The foundation will promote and prove programs based on the Charitable Loans concept for the empowerment and sustainable economic improvement of women, especially single mothers.

Prior to becoming an author, Neal formed and managed several businesses, specializing in finance, operations, marketing, and exit strategies. His work spanned advising and working for newly formed start-up, initial public offering, and Fortune 100 companies. Once a licensed securities broker, Mr. Katz is familiar with the financial markets from an insider's perspective and used that knowledge to inform those aspects of the book involving Wall Street and commerce.

Neal has conceived and defined a new financial paradigm to create jobs while providing continuous and renewable funding for many charitable endeavors, such as micro-finance, low income housing, vocational training, and infrastructure renewal.. The idea is to do this on a national scale and infuse $1 Trillion into the economy. It can and will be done!

Being of service is Neal's credo and he is ceaselessly mentoring, sharing, teaching and learning in one form or another. Neal prides himself on being accessible to others and being of service.

First and foremost is being a great Dad. Neal trained for and completed a triathlon; studied the Torah, Talmud, and Judaic mystical texts in Hebrew, Aramaic, English and even some Latin; produced exquisite wines in Oregon; taken a company he co-founded public and advised many others; studied and became a cotton farmer; learned and taught A Course in Miracles; writes poetry; designed a macro-economic financial system; and become a successful author. He lives a life based on self-awareness and Love. He practices Yoga, meditates daily, taught A Course in Miracles, produced Oregon wines under the LOVE, a Wine Co. label, enjoys reciting Vedic sutras, and writes his own inspirational poetry.
