About the Author

Clayton Craddock has spent 26 years in Broadway pits, written three books, and spent a lifetime paying attention to things most people walk right past.

100 Top Tens is his second book — and the one his non-drummer friends actually asked for. It has nothing to do with Broadway and everything to do with the arguments you didn't know you wanted to have.

He lives in New York City and is currently playing drums eight shows a week at the Broadhurst Theatre.
