Biography

American director, producer, screenwriter, journalist, author, and actor. Before moving into the film industry, Crowe was a contributing editor at Rolling Stone magazine, for which he still frequently writes.

Crowe's debut screenwriting effort, "Fast Times at Ridgemont High," grew out of a book he wrote while posing for one year undercover as a student at Clairemont High School in San Diego, California.

Later, he wrote and directed one more high school saga, "Say Anything," followed by "Singles," a story of twentysomethings that was woven together by a soundtrack centering on Seattle's burgeoning grunge music scene.

Crowe landed his biggest hit with "Jerry Maguire." After this, he was given a green light to go ahead with a pet project, the autobiographical effort "Almost Famous." Centering on a teenage music journalist on tour with an up-and-coming band, it gave insight to his life as a 15-year-old writer for Rolling Stone. For his screenplay, he won an Academy Award.

In late 1999, Crowe's second book was published, a question and answer session with the film director Billy Wilder entitled "Conversations with Wilder."
