Seth M. Siegel is an award-winning author and a serial entrepreneur. In his award-winning, critically acclaimed New York Times bestseller, Let There Be Water: Israel’s Solution for a Water-Starved World, Seth tells how Israel transformed a desert into a blooming nation, and, in the process, how it became a global hub of water technology and innovation. The book provides an urgent warning about coming global water scarcity and describes solutions that consist of remarkable techniques and technology developed in Israel.

Mr. Siegel was also a Producer of the Tony Award-nominated Broadway revival of Man of La Mancha. He has recently assumed the position of Chief Sustainability Officer of N-Drip, an Israeli company that is bringing revolutionary irrigation technology to the world.
