Bruce by Peter Ames Carlin

From the New York Times bestselling author of Tonight in Jungleland comes the first biography in more than twenty-five years written with Bruce Springsteen's cooperation--an intimate, powerful portrait that captures the enduring impact of the Boss: "Carlin gets across why Mr. Springsteen has meant so much, for so long, to so many people" (The New York Times).

In Bruce, acclaimed music writer Peter Ames Carlin presents a startlingly intimate and vivid portrait of a rock icon. For more than four decades, Bruce Springsteen has reflected the heart and soul of America with a career that includes twenty Grammy Awards, more than 120 million albums sold, two Golden Globes, and an Academy Award. Peter Ames Carlin masterfully encompasses the breadth of Springsteen's astonishing career and explores the inner workings of a man who managed to redefine generations of music.

A must read for fans, Bruce is a meticulously researched, compulsively readable biography of a man laden with family tragedy, a tremendous dedication to his artistry, and an all-consuming passion for fame and influence.

Peter Ames Carlin is a writer and the author of various books, including Bruce, a Bruce Springsteen biography released in October of 2012. Carlin has previously worked as a freelance journalist, a senior writer for People magazine in New York City, and a television columnist and feature writer for The Oregonian in Portland. Carlin, who lives in Portland, Oregon, with his wife and three children, is a frequent speaker on music, art, and popular culture.
