For over four decades, Cal Fussman has interviewed hundreds of the world's most influential individuals: Muhammad Ali, Jack Welch, Mikhail Gorbachev, Serena Williams, Jeff Bezos, Jimmy Carter, Kobe Bryant, Richard Branson, and the list goes on.

Now, as a New York Times bestselling author, keynote speaker, world-renowned interviewer, and host of the Big Questions podcast, Fussman travels the world teaching the world's largest companies, universities, and associations about leadership, storytelling, innovation, teamwork, and more. When Cal speaks, you're listening to everyone he's ever interviewed. Lessons and stories from hundreds of world icons, all coming through one man in a fedora.

Over the past several years, Cal has delivered keynotes for industry leading organizations including General Motors, Facebook, Pixar, Twitter, The Vanguard Group, Apple Music, Snapchat, Samsung, Turner Broadcasting, Vans, Lululemon, YPO, and Entrepreneur's Organization; universities like UCLA and Georgetown; and at conferences as far as South Africa and Kenya. After Cal spoke at Facebook, Chris Sanders in Global Marketing Solutions said: "We literally have people using the term, ‘Cal Question.' He has become a part of our culture."

Born in Brooklyn, Fussman spent ten straight years traveling the world, swimming over 18-foot tiger sharks, rolling around with mountain gorillas in Rwanda, and searching for gold in the Amazon. He boxed against then-undefeated world champion Julio Cesar Chavez, won a James Beard award and served as sommelier atop of the World Trade Center.

He now lives with his wife - whom he met while on his quest to discover the world's most beautiful beach - and his three children in Los Angeles, where he spends every morning eating breakfast with Larry King.
