Reconstruct a matrix from its traces

The traces $\mathrm{Tr}(A^k\,\Gamma)=t_k$, $k\in\mathbb{N}$ are also known, $\Gamma$ is given. Can $A$ be found based on this information? If yes, how? … By this answer, $\Gamma$ then commutes only with diagonal matrices. user44191 suggested that $B=M^{-1}AM$ ($M$-nonsingular) will have the same traces as $A$. …
