Bernard Madoff’s Ponzi scheme ruined an untold number of investors and struck such a political and social chord that it has inspired screen projects such as “The Wizard of Lies,” at least two Off Broadway plays, including “Imagining Madoff,” and enough books that there are lists dedicated to the best ones.
