March 16 (Bloomberg) -- Michael Lewis, author of "Liars'
Poker," talks with Bloomberg's Erik Schatzker about the subprime mortgage crisis and his new book "The Big Short."
The book is a chronicle of four sets of players in the
subprime mortgage market who had the foresight and gumption to short the riskiest mortgage deals: Steve Eisman of FrontPoint, Greg Lippmann at Deutsche Bank, three partners at Cornwall Capital, and Michael Burry of Scion Capital. (Source Bloomberg)
