Gene Simmons

Known as one of rock's ultimate showmen, Gene Simmons co-founded the hard rock supergroup KISS in the early 1970s with Paul Stanley. Since then, KISS has sold more than eighty million albums and performed more than two thousand shows around the world, and is still touring today.

A multihyphenate entrepreneur and one of the world's most recognized personalities, he is the author of the New York Times bestselling books Me, Inc. and Kiss & Make Up, and has appeared on television and in film, starring in his own show on A&E, Gene Simmons Family Jewels, which has become the longest-running celebrity reality show of all time.

 “The hard-learned wisdom laid out here is a road map for success that anyone can benefit from.”

-John Varvatos, from his foreword for Me, Inc.

“You literally can turn to any page, pick a random sentence and likely find potent words of wisdom.”

-Wall Street Journal

“Brutally honest business advice . . . Simmons . . . distills 40 years of leading the global-phenomenon rock band, which has franchised into a billion pieces of merchandise, including everything from comic books to a coffee shop.”
