Drawn from interviews conducted by director Danny Garcia for his acclaimed documentary LOOKING FOR JOHNNY, this oral biography of the legendary Johnny Thunders includes first-hand recollections from those who knew Johnny best, from his fellow New York Dolls, Heartbreakers, and Oddballs to his friends, fellow musicians, and loved ones. Johnny Thunders lives again through the reminiscences of Sylvain Sylvain, Walter Lure, Leee Black Childers, Billy Rath, Marty Thau, Lenny Kaye, Peter Perrett, Bob Gruen, Richard Lloyd, and many others. "The stories and anecdotes contained in this book are a strike against mortality, and a lasting testament to the inimitable spirit of Mr. Johnny Thunders, and stand as a worthy companion to the documentary." -Nina Antonia (author of JOHNNY THUNDERS...IN COLD BLOOD and TOO MUCH TOO SOON: THE NEW YORK DOLLS)

Danny Garcia started his career writing for Spanish music magazines in the 1990s and has contributed to a number of publications, including the notorious magazine HIGH TIMES. By the early 2000s, Garcia was already writing, directing and producing a series of short documentaries for BTV, Barcelona's local TV station. In 2012, Garcia directed THE RISE AND FALL OF THE CLASH, a controversial film dealing with the obscure end of The Clash. In 2014, LOOKING FOR JOHNNY, Garcia's documentary on the legendary New York Dolls guitarist Johnny Thunders, was released worldwide. LOOKING FOR JOHNNY reached Number 10 in the BILLBOARD Music Video chart in the US, and Number 1 in Sweden and Japan. In 2016, after a successful film festival run, SAD VACATION, his documentary on Sid and Nancy, was also released worldwide. He is currently at work on a new music documentary on Stiv Bators.
