THE AUTHOR
Antonino D’Ambrosio, a writer, filmmaker, and visual artist, is the author of the critically acclaimed A Heartbeat and A Guitar: Johnny Cash and the Making of Bitter Tears with original art by Shepard Fairey and rarely seen photography from celebrated photographer Jim Marshall. Legendary musician Pete Seeger describes the book as “a rare work that is beautiful and inspiring”; acclaimed historian Howard Zinn calls the book an “important contribution to the cultural history of our time”; and visionary filmmaker Jim Jarmusch lauds the book as “a truly fascinating journey.” D’Ambrosio’s most recent book, Mayday, is a unique collaboration with Shepard Fairey. Musically, D’Ambrosio is working with Chuck D of Public Enemy, Wayne Kramer of the MC5, and Martin Perna of Antibalas on a new project.
D’Ambrosio’s writing has appeared in The Nation, The Progressive, The Believer, Salon.com, and many other publications. A frequent guest on TV and radio, D’Ambrosio has hosted radio shows on WBAI and East Village Radio. Chuck D of Public Enemy has described him as “the voice of a new generation—passionate, intelligent, and fierce—whose work educates and inspires.” D’Ambrosio has produced more than fifteen documentaries and other films, including the award-winning film No Free Lunch, starring comedian Lewis Black, which received a notice of distinction from Vanity Fair in 2008. During 2009—2010, D’Ambrosio produced and performed in a series of multimedia special events in support of his book A Heartbeat and a Guitar. Performers included Antibalas, Wayne Kramer of the MC5, Chuck D, Jon Langford of the Mekons, Chris Mills, Sean Hayes, Shepard Fairey, Ocote Soul Sounds, Rocky Votolato, Dick Weisman of the Journeymen, and Jeremiah Lockwood of The Sway Machinery. D’Ambrosio was a featured performer at the 2009 SXSW Music Festival, Philadelphia Book Festival, and the 92nd Street Y (Tribeca).
D’Ambrosio is the founder of La Lutta New Media Collective (lalutta.org), a nonprofit social media and documentary production group that The Nation selected as one of the top independent media groups in the country. In 2009, he was named artist-in-residence at the Center for Contemporary of Arts in Santa Fe, New Mexico, where he launched the multimedia visual land arts series La Terra Promessa. D’Ambrosio’s current feature length film, Let Fury Have the Hour (letfuryhavethehour.com), chronicles the movement of world citizenship via creative response inspired by his essays from the book of the same name. In 2006, he became New York University’s Gallatin Lecturer, an honor bestowed upon a contemporary artist creating innovative and social engaging work.

Chuck D, one of hip-hop’s most commanding and recognizable voices, has influenced an entire generation of both fans and artists. Originally from Long Island, he found fame as the frontman for Public Enemy, a group known for their revolutionary lyricism and groundbreaking production.
