Robert Greene, born on May 14, 1959, in Los Angeles, California, is an American author known for his books on strategy, power, and seduction. He studied classical studies at the University of California, Berkeley, and later graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Before becoming a full-time writer, Greene worked a variety of jobs, including as a construction worker, translator, and magazine editor.

Greene’s career took a significant turn when he joined Fabrica, an art and media school in Italy, where he met book packager Joost Elffers. Together, they developed the concept for his first book, The 48 Laws of Power, published in 1998. This book became a bestseller and has been translated into multiple languages, establishing Greene as a leading voice in contemporary discussions about power dynamics.

He has since authored several other influential works, including The Art of Seduction (2001), The 33 Strategies of War (2006), The 50th Law (2009, co-authored with rapper 50 Cent), Mastery (2012), The Laws of Human Nature (2018), and The Daily Laws (2021). Greene’s writings often draw on historical examples and figures to illustrate his insights into human behavior and strategy.

His books have garnered a wide readership among business leaders, celebrities, and artists alike. Greene is known for his provocative ideas and has been described as the most banned author in U.S. prisons due to the controversial nature of his work. He currently resides in Los Angeles and continues to write and speak on topics related to power and strategy.
