Keith Elliot Greenberg


Keith Elliot Greenberg is a New York Times best-selling author, and television producer. He was born in the Bronx in 1959, and went to Bayside High School in Queens, graduating in January 1977. He attended a number of colleges in the New York area.

His many books include Menudo, To Be the Man, Erik is Homeless, and Zack's Story. In November 2010, Backbeat Books released December 8, 1980: The Day John Lennon Died, Greenberg's minute-by-minute account of the last day of John Lennon's life. He has written articles for WWE magazine, Playboy, Men's Journal, The Huffington Post' Maxim and The Village Voice. He previously produced Geraldo at Large, a prime-time television program on Fox News Channel, and America's Most Wanted. He now works at NBC's Peacock Productions, producing primarily hour-long crime programs.

In December 2010, St. Martins Press released Love Hurts, the story of the Caffey family murder in rural Texas and Greenberg's second true-crime book for the publisher. His first was Perfect Beauty, about a murder in Ohio. In 2017, his third St. Martins true-crime book, Killing for You about a crime in Orange County, California, is scheduled for release.

In 2015, two of his books were scheduled to be published, Too Fast To Live, Too Young To Die, about the death of James Dean, and the cult that surrounds it (Hal Leonard/Applause Books), and a long-awaited autobiography of former WWE Champion, the Iron Sheik (ECW Press). Despite the excitement surrounding the Sheik book, it was cancelled, presumably due to objectionable content.

In 2016, he co-authored the third edition of the WWE Encyclopedia of Sports Entertainment with Steve Pantaleo and Kevin Sullivan. On October 24, 2016, the coffee table book was number one in three Amazon categories: wrestling, sports and art.'
