Herb Cohen to Speak

On Sunday October 23rd at noon, the FJCC welcomes Herb Cohen, subject of the JBC book “The Adventures of Herbie Cohen: World’s Greatest Negotiator.”

This book in part biography and part family memoir, written by his son Rich Cohen, centers on Herb Cohen, an international deal-making guru. Herb learned his legendary negotiating skills as the leader of a Jewish gang on the streets of Bensonhurst, Brooklyn. In his adulthood, he’s helped resolve major strikes and consulted for countless corporations and government agencies. The stories of Herbie Cohen, his childhood friends and his escapades in the US Army, are the starting point of The Adventures of Herbie Cohen: World’s Greatest Negotiator.
