changed the world, they were children.
Mozart, Albert Einstein, and Steve Jobs—and reveals the price of
brilliance.
* Mozart’s father paraded him across Europe as a child prodigy, driving
him to dazzling heights and early ruin.
* Einstein’s mother pushed him relentlessly, molding a stubborn dreamer
into the world’s most famous scientist.
* Steve Jobs was adopted by a machinist and a bookkeeper, raised in a
California garage where craftsmanship met rebellion—only to falter when
fatherhood became his own test.
Written as gripping narrative nonfiction, Raising Genius reads like a novel
but stays true to history. You’ll walk candlelit halls in Vienna, sit in
Einstein’s parlor in Bern, and stand in the Los Altos garage where Apple
was born. Each scene is real, each triumph shadowed by sacrifice.
This is not just another biography. It is a reflection on parenting and
genius—how families shape greatness, and what genius costs in return.
Mozart gave his body.
Einstein gave his family.
Jobs gave his daughter.
The world remembers their brilliance. This is the story of the parents who
made—and unmade—them.
About the Author
Â
backyard obstacle courses, I’m writing about parenting, leadership, and
the forces that shape human potential.
I blend backgrounds in psychology, neuroscience, and business strategy to
create books that help parents and readers think differently about raising
children, balancing modern life, and understanding the roots of genius. My
work spans practical parenting guides like Raising Future Leaders and Perfect
Parents Don’t Exist, as well as narrative nonfiction such as Raising
Genius: Mozart, Einstein, Jobs — The Price of Brilliance.
Through my writing and consulting, I aim to make research and history not only
accessible, but actionable—so that families can thrive, and readers can
see the world in new ways.
