Pulling back the curtain on the inequities she and so many others faced, Wolf Hustle reveals how Cin worked grueling hours, ascending from cold caller to stockbroker, becoming the only Black woman to do so at her firm. She indulges the excesses she took part in on 1990s Wall Street—the strip clubs, the Hamptons parties, the Gucci shopping sprees—while reveling in the thrill of making money. From landing clients worth hundreds of millions to gaining, losing, then gaining back fortunes in seconds, Cin examines her years spent trading frantically and hustling successfully, grappling with what it takes to build a rich life, and, ultimately, beating Wall Street at its own game.

“What an amazing voice! What a clear-eyed and powerful story! Wow! She takes us back into her Haitian roots, through her life as a young person, and into the bowels of Wall Street to shine a deep and thoughtful light on everything from the Black immigrant experience in America to capitalism. Everyone needs to read this.”

“Long before the culture of Silicon Valley came to power, the Wall Street ‘bros’ established a business culture that lives for money, prizes excess and debauchery, and excludes women and people of color. In Wolf Hustle, Cin Fabré offers an engrossing and unflinching portrait of surviving and succeeding in an arena dominated by men, adding a welcome and necessary voice to the story of the financial foundation of America.”
—Emily Chang, author of Brotopia
