Michael Gates Gill Michael Gates Gill is the New York Times Best-selling author of the poignant memoir, How Starbucks Saved My Life: A Son of Privilege Learns to Live Like Everyone Else. Gill details his life as an entitled, Yale educated, highly paid executive for the prestigious J. Walter Thompson ad agency and the regrets that come with the perception of success. It is the story of the fortunes of a man from a privileged background whose life takes a sharp downward turn when he looses his high-powered position, destroying his marriage and encountering personal illness in middle age. Unemployed and unhappy, his chance encounter at Starbucks changes his life and outlook on what success really means. His own errors and hard-won life lessons give the story a bittersweet piquancy saving it from self-pity or self-congratulations.
The contrast between Michael Gill's upper-crust background and his employment at Starbucks is striking. This is a man who once socialized with Frank Lloyd Wright, and enjoyed lunch with Queen Elizabeth and the Kennedy's. His clients included Ford Motor Company and Christian Dior, but now he serves the daily brew at a local Starbucks. Interestingly, the respect and dignity he now finds serving coffee was never found in his high powered position. The coffee store becomes his refuge where he doesn't dwell on what he's lost but enlightens us in all he has gained - a serving of hot brewed happiness he never could have imagined. Universal Studios recently bought the film rights and Tom Hanks is slated to play Gill in the upcoming feature film highlighting how moving from the ruling class to a member of the serving class is a surprisingly joyous journey.
"Happiness in the daily grind." - The Wall Street Journal
