Book Pick of the Week: Athletes Who Rock!

Award-winning author and journalist Motez Bishara is bringing readers straight to the intersection of sports and music with his new book, “ATHLETES WHO ROCK!: Stories of Sacrifice, Setbacks, and Success in Sports, Music and Life,” (Cranthorpe Millner Publishers, February 22, 2022), a collection of in-depth interviews with fifteen extraordinary individuals who have lived out every kid’s fantasy: becoming a rock star and star athlete at the same time.

ATHLETES WHO ROCK! presents a wide variety of conversations with ethereal athletes like Damian Lillard, Daniela Hantuchova, Rony Seikaly, Bernie Williams, Essence Carson and Yannick Noah who offer insights and stories about their dual careers and reflect over what skills or attributes—if any—link the two worlds. They’ve won World Series titles and tennis Grand Slams, an Olympic gold and a WNBA championship, played in the FA Cup Final and NCAA basketball final, been named to NFL Pro Bowls and NBA All Star games, and captained England in The Ashes. Their successes have been glorious. The hurdles they have crossed are at times hard to believe. Now they’re offering exclusive behind-the-scenes access into their worlds.
 
Whether it’s their impeccable timing and rhythm, their ability to improvise on the go, or their unshakable dedication to be the very best they can be in their chosen fields, these inspiring characters have separated themselves from the masses. No matter what the links are, their spectacular success in two arenas is the ultimate crossover.
