Cuomo earned millions from pandemic book deal despite nursing home controversy

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo made millions off of his bestselling book about leadership during the coronavirus pandemic, despite multiple ongoing investigations into how he handled deaths at nursing homes during the height of the COVID-19 outbreak.

Net income from the book in 2020 was $1.5 million ($3.1 million before taxes and expenses).

The governor had previously declined to divulge the details of his deal with Crown Publishing, but said it would be made publicly available when he released his tax returns as he does each year.

His office did not return FOX Business’ request for comment has told several news outlets, including WXXA, that Cuomo donated one-third of his proceeds to United Way for the COVID-19 vaccine and put the rest away in trust funds for his daughters.

Cuomo’s book, called “American Crisis: Leadership Lessons from the Covid-19 Pandemic,” was published in October and debuted as a bestseller. It details lessons learned as New York quickly became the epicenter of the pandemic outbreak in the early months of 2020.
