P&T Knitwear is pleased to welcome Judd Kessler to celebrate and discuss his new book, Lucky by Design: a book that pulls back the curtain on hidden markets that determine who gets what in everyday life—and how to tip the scales in your favor.
Judd will be joined in conversation by Seth Stephens Davidowitz. Along with a discussion and audience Q&A, Judd will also sign copies of his book
