David Sheff (born December 23, 1955) is an American author of the books Beautiful Boy: A Father's Journey Through His Son's Addiction, Clean: Overcoming Addiction and Ending America's Greatest Tragedy,[3] Game Over,[4][5] The Buddhist on Death Row[6] and All We Are Saying: The Last Interview with John Lennon and Yoko Ono.[7]
He also writes for magazines and newspapers, including The New York Times, The New York Times Magazine, Wired, Rolling Stone and other publications.
The interview apparently depended on Yoko's interpretation of my horoscope, just as many of Lenons' business decisions are reportedly guide by the stars. I could imagine explaining to my Playboy editor, 'Sorry, but my moon is in Scorpio–the interview's off.' It was clearly out of my hands. I supplied the info: December 23, three P.M., Boston.
