For your best clients.

Legacy by Levin is offered by invitation, through financial advisors. You introduce a client. My team and I write the book of their life with them, in their voice, and the family gets bound copies.

I’m Michael Levin, a New York Times bestselling ghostwriter. I’ve written, co-written, edited or published more than a thousand books.

Why advisors offer it.

  • What matters to them

    Telling a life story means talking about family, the business and what to pass on, the same ground as estate planning.

  • The next generation

    The book goes to the children and grandchildren. They’ll know who made the introduction.

  • No extra work

    After the introduction, we handle every step, from the first conversation to the bound book.

Writing

Client’s time

One introduction

From the families.

“My father, Victor Carter, was a leading industrialist and philanthropist in Los Angeles for decades. Michael Levin worked with me to capture his story from his upbringing in Russia to his conquering of not one but three industries, including the film industry. Michael was a diligent partner, a thorough interviewer, and an outstanding writer, and I’m very proud of the book that we created together.”
Fanya CarterAuthor, All The Best
“Thank you for helping make this book possible. Never to forget, never to forgive.”
Abe ZuckermanHolocaust survivor and author, A Voice In The Chorus
