Bio
Anthony Bozza is an author and memoirist who has penned multiple New York Times and internationally best-selling books. His career began as a staff writer for Rolling Stone magazine where he wrote the groundbreaking first national cover story on Eminem in 1999. After writing six more cover stories and countless features, he left the magazine in 2002 to write his first book, Whatever You Say I Am: The Life and Times of Eminem (2003). It was a runaway bestseller in the UK, US, and Europe and is considered the definitive biography of the rapper’s early life and career. To date, it has been reprinted in fourteen languages. Bozza has written NYT best-selling memoirs with Slash of Guns n’ Roses (2007), Tommy Lee of Mötley Crüe (2004), New York Yankee legend Derek Jeter (2014), as well as the number one NYT Bestseller Too Fat to Fish with comedian Artie Lange (2008) and that book’s best-selling sequel Crash and Burn (2013). He has also written the memoirs of Wyclef Jean (2012), INXS (2005), Tracy Morgan (2009), Mick Fleetwood (2014), and Raekwon of the Wu-Tang Clan (2021). As an author, he has also written Why AC/DC Matters (2009), a biography/think piece on the Australian rock icons, and Not Afraid: The Evolution of Eminem (2019), a sequel to his first book on the rapper. Bozza’s next project will be the memoir of actor Joe Manganiello, to be published by Simon and Schuster in 2026. In addition to writing, Anthony hosts WINYL, an interview-based podcast that pairs his guest’s favorite record with a bottle of wine that perfectly captures the spirit of the music.
