About the Author
Although he is the only child of a tenant farmer and girl raised in the projects and the first male in his family to graduate from college, Mr. Roberts became a Vice President on Wall Street, an alum of three prestigious academic institutions (Greensboro Day School, The College of William & Mary, and the UNC Business School), and a certified basketball legend (2004 Colonial Athletic Association Men s Basketball Legend Award, W&M Team Captain, MVP, and All-CAA 1990-93, and the 1990 CAA Rookie of the Year). Throughout his successful journey, Mr. Roberts has never forgotten what has made everything possible: unconditional love and a relentless commitment to education.
After playing basketball professionally in Gmunden, Austria and Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE), Mr. Roberts is an accomplished banker with over fourteen years of experience in helping the wealthiest families, companies, and entrepreneurs reach their financial goals. He has served as a Small Business Banker at Wachovia Bank in North Carolina, a Private Banker with J.P. Morgan s Private Bank in New York and Atlanta, and a Vice President with Citigroup s Private Bank High Net Worth Group, in Washington, DC.
Mr. Roberts earned his BA in Economics and Anthropology (1993) from the College of William and Mary. He later completed his MBA at the Kenan-Flagler Business School at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (2001). He is member of the Leadership Fairfax 08.
Mr. Roberts is a dedicated father to his six-year old daughter, Mia. He resides in Fairfax, Va.

Store description
With 3 stores less than 1 hour outside the DC/Metropolitan area (1 in Gaithersburg, 1 in Frederick and 1 in Hagerstown, MD), we have the largest selection of books in the tri-state area. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.…
