Atlas

From the Streets to the Ring

Teddy Atlas, Peter Alson

This autobiography from legendary boxing trainer Teddy Atlas covers his fascinating life, from his troubled adolescence to his time as a boxer and Golden Gloves champion to his work as a trainer of champions and contenders, including Mike Tyson and Michael Moorer. Along the way, he shares engaging accounts of his experiences training Twyla Tharp and Willem Dafoe, as well as his own foray into acting. But more than a story about boxing, it's a tale of personal and professional triumph over hardship, compassionate service, and tremendous personal integrity.
