My Life in Business Suits, Hospital Gowns, and High Heels

In Control, Being Controlled, Out of Control!

by Tom LeNoble

Tom LeNoble's memoir follows a life rebuilt many times, from a childhood home in Florida with no hot water, through the AIDS years and a corporate career at MCI, Walmart.com, Palm and Facebook, to his work as a coach and confidential advisor to leaders. Along the way he lived with two life-threatening illnesses and was told three times that he had six months to live. The book won the LGBTQ Nonfiction category at the 2026 NYC Big Book Award and was named a Distinguished Favorite at the Independent Press Award.
