Venture capitalist Amy Griffin’s memoir, “The Tell,” has recently been selected as the latest book club pick by Oprah Winfrey. The book aims to explore themes of healing and sharing personal truths.
Griffin, who is also the founder of G9 Ventures, expressed her dedication to this project, saying she spent five years crafting her message. “When Oprah called, I forgot every one of those words,” Griffin reflected, highlighting the honor and pressure of being featured by such a prominent figure.
Since establishing her firm in 2017, Griffin has backed several notable brands, including Goop, Bumble, and Hello Sunshine, showcasing her influence in the venture capital world.
Oprah’s book club, which she started in 1996, fosters a community of readers and is currently in collaboration with Starbucks. Recently, Oprah conducted an engaging conversation with Griffin at a Starbucks in Chicago. This discussion can be found on Oprah’s YouTube channel, offering insights into Griffin’s journey and the narrative behind her memoir.
