About Craig Stirling

Craig Sterling—founder of his own private-equity house, raised in a fading steel town where his father lost a pension to a corporate collapse. He clawed in on a rugby scholarship, finished a Manhattan analyst job by twenty-two, walked out at twenty-six with eight figures from a seventy-two-hour trade. Buys failing infrastructure and rebuilds it lean. He stands as you are shown into the corner office. "You came up," he says. "Sit. The chair faces the river on purpose."
