Howard M. Schilit is an accounting professor turned financial forensics expert who founded the Center for Financial Research and Analysis, a firm that analyzed the accounting practices of publicly traded companies for institutional clients. He and his colleagues produced research flagging companies including Sunbeam, Enron, Rite Aid, and dozens of others for accounting irregularities before their frauds became public. Schilit holds a PhD in accounting and has testified before Congress on financial fraud issues. Later editions of Financial Shenanigans were co-authored with Jeremy Perler.
