Anthony Uzarowski – Ghostwriter

Acclaimed non-fiction author and ghostwriter, specializing in entertainment biographies and memoirs. Expert book proposal writer.

Overview

I am a published author, researcher, and freelance writer, with over a decade of experience in the publishing industry. My specialty is non-fiction, particularly biography and memoir. My books include acclaimed biographies of actors Jessica Lange and Ava Gardner, as well as an anthology of LGBTQ+ icons. My upcoming works are a biography of Lauren Bacall and a book on Marilyn Monroe and the making of her final film, The Misfits. As a freelance journalist, I have written for numerous publications, including The Guardian, Vanity Fair, The Gay Times, and many others. I have also worked as a peer reviewer for Kentucky University Press. Having graduated with a master’s degree in film studies from one of the world’s top universities, I have a particular interest in cinema and anything involving popular culture.


I am excited to work on projects which involve personal histories framed within a larger cultural landscape. While entertainment biographies and memoirs are my main area of interest, I am open to working with a variety of genres and exploring unconventional narratives.


I know how daunting it may seem to turn a wonderful idea or a fascinating story into an actual book. This is where I come in – from outlining and planning to writing and editing, I will be there every step of the way. If you have a great story to tell but writing just isn’t your thing, we can work as a team – your ideas, my writing. I also have a great track record of writing successful proposals for non-fiction books and am happy to guide you through the process. When it comes to convincing publishers about your book idea, a well-constructed proposal is key. Over the years, I have written proposals for all five of my books and assisted other authors in completing theirs. My aim now is to use my experience and the lessons I’ve learned on my journey as an author and help you realize your literary dreams. Whatever your story, it’s time to tell it. Let’s do it!
