Peter J. Boni credits his disruptive childhood, a fine college education from The University of Massachusetts@Amherst, decorated on-the-ground service as a US Army Special Operations Team Leader in Vietnam (coined his “Rice Paddy MBA”), love of his family and friendship circle, plus luck-of-the-draw DNA with making him the person he has become today...an award-winning and best-selling author, senior advisor, acclaimed speaker, fun-loving grandfather, and an advocate for the rights of the donor-conceived. In his latest book, Uprooted: Family Trauma, Unknown Origins, and the Secretive History of Artificial Insemination (awarded Best Book, Narrative Nonfiction in 2022 by American Book Fest), Peter intimately shares his personal odyssey and acquired expertise (part deeply intimate memoir; part tell-all expose`) on the scientific, legal and sociological history and evolution of the multi-billion-dollar, largely unregulated, assisted reproductive technology industry. He was aghast to learn that it conceives dozens, sometimes hundreds, of unknowing half-siblings from a single gamete donor (sperm, egg, or embryo)—over one million children and adults whose ranks have grown by 50 percent just within the last decade. There are no restrictions of the number of offspring per donor; no requirements for a sibling registry, donor identification, genetic testing, or health history; no mandate for donor or recipient counseling regarding the needs of a donor-conceived child; and no legal penalties for blatant fertility fraud. The breeding of puppies enjoys greater regulatory oversight.

He has learned to never underestimate the importance of attracting, retaining, and rewarding well-trained, capable people who can think out of the box, navigate complexity, and work as a team—themes found throughout his first book, All Hands on Deck: Navigating Your Team Through Crises, Getting Your Organization Unstuck, and Emerging Victorious. An inspiring public speaker with a storytelling, audience-participation style, Peter enjoys an active physical regimen, entertaining and sailing with friends and family while at his Cape Cod residence and traveling with his wife to, among other locales, San Francisco and New York City to visit their growing family.
