Jeffrey Robinson Biography

Jeffrey Robinson is an American author and investigative journalist whose career includes more than 30 books, hundreds of magazine and newspaper articles, and a range of television work. While still in school, Robinson wrote for television and radio, including a weekly children's show, and was on the writing staff of The Mike Douglas Show, a nationally televised daily talk show. He continued working in media during his four-year service as an officer in the United States Air Force, where he managed a press and public relations office for five generals during the Vietnam War, hosted a weekly talk show, scripted and directed film projects, and worked as a disc jockey on local radio. After his military service, Robinson moved to a village in the south of France and spent 12 years traveling as a freelance journalist, publishing more than 600 stories and articles.

Robinson is the author of 30 books and is recognized for his expertise in financial crime and investigative journalism. He wrote the investigative book "The Laundrymen," which examines global money laundering and the movement of illicit funds through legitimate businesses, law firms, and banks. The book is used in universities and law schools and became a bestseller in the UK, leading Robinson to script and host several television documentaries, including projects for BBC and Arte in France and Germany.

He followed "The Laundrymen" with a sequel, "The Merger – How Organized Crime is Taking Over The World," which explores the operations of transnational organized crime groups. Robinson later published "The Sink," focusing on crime, terrorism, and dirty money. He has also written biographies, including "Yamani – The Inside Story" about Saudi Arabia's former Minister of Oil Ahmed Zaki Yamani; "Rainier & Grace," written with the cooperation of Monaco's sovereign family; and "Bardot – Two Lives," written with the cooperation of Brigitte Bardot.

Robinson has co-written memoirs, including "Standing Next to History" with Joseph Petro, an autobiography of a Secret Service agent; Ronnie Wood's autobiography about his years with The Rolling Stones; and "Leading From The Front" with British entrepreneur Gerald Ronson. In television, Robinson conceived and wrote the pilot for the British crime drama series "Tightrope" for Yorkshire Television and wrote the pilot episode for the financial crime series "Follow The Money." His work has been recognized with the Benedictine Award as After-Dinner Speaker of the Year. Robinson's magazine credits include Playboy, Barron's, Reader's Digest, and TV Guide, while his newspaper credits include The New York Times, The Washington Post, The San Francisco Examiner, and International Herald Tribune.
