    #808 From Foster Homes to Fortune: A Journey That Will Make You Laugh and Cry

    I am always amazed about the resiliency of people in their lives and their companies.

He presses his face against the car window, watches the miles pass and wonders where life will take him. In a memoir filled with human drama, wisdom and timeless life lessons, "On The Road Less Travelled: An Unlikely Journey from the Orphanage to the Boardroom" tells the improbable story of how Hajim bounced from foster homes to orphanages, in a daily struggle to survive, to living the American dream as an accomplished Wall Street executive and model family man with great moral fiber and the means to give back to a world that seemed intent on rejecting him.

    Ed served as a senior executive at such firms as E.F. Hutton, Lehman Brothers, Furman Selz and other financial institutions, regularly transforming fledgling operations into profitable growth machines. In 2008, after 20 years as a trustee of the University of Rochester, Hajim began an eight-year tenure as chairman of the university’s board. Upon assuming that office he gave the school $30 million—the largest single donation in its history—to support scholarships and endow the Edmund A. Hajim School of Engineering and Applied Sciences. In 2015, he received the Horatio Alger Award, given to Americans who exemplify the values of initiative, leadership, and commitment to excellence and who have succeeded despite personal adversities.
