ABOUT SCOTT
Scott Anthony isn’t just another true crime author — he lived it. Born and bred in the streets of Chicago, Scott came up fast and hard, learning the game from the inside. He didn’t just flirt with crime — he made it a career. From drug dealing and violent robberies in the ’80s to high-level Cuban cigar smuggling in the ’90s, his life reads like a movie script… except every word is true.
After fleeing the country to avoid arrest, Scott lived five years on the run — rebuilding his life with fake names, forged papers, and a brain built for survival. Now a husband, father of eight, reformed outlaw, and established businessman, he’s using his past to write the kind of stories mainstream publishing is too scared to touch.

SMOKE IS THE TRUE STORY YOU WON'T BELIEVE —
CUBAN CIGARS, HIGH-STAKES SMUGGLING,
AND ONE MAN'S WILD RIDE FROM THE STREETS TO SURVIVAL.
ABOUT THE BOOK
Scott Anthony’s first book, Smoke: Confessions of a Cuban Cigar Smuggler, drops readers straight into the Havana underworld — raw, detailed, and unforgettable. But that’s just the beginning. Encouraged by people close to him, Scott went all in and wrote three more books — laying out his full story, no filters, no masks. Not to brag. Not to glorify. But because it needed to be told.
Scott is brutally honest, unapologetically real, and has nothing left to hide. When he speaks, he’s not telling war stories — he’s delivering a street education.

![Life doesn't just "happen" to us; sometimes it hits us so hard we find ourselves living in a van, stripped of everything we thought defined us. I’ve been there—at the absolute bottom, feeling the weight of every struggle and the pain of a necessary metamorphosis.
The hardest part isn’t the struggle itself; it’s the decision to change. It’s the moment you realize that the life you're living is no longer the life you're meant for. Most people stay stuck because they are afraid of the "fire" that comes with transformation. They see the effort, they see the pain, but they don't see the studio waiting on the other side.
I put my blood, sweat, and truth into my book, "SMOKE: Confessions of a Cuban Cigar Smuggler." It’s not just a story about smuggling; it’s a blueprint for anyone going through their own "metamorphosis." Today, the van is gone. My studio is back. My podcast is booming. My life turned around because I chose to pull the trigger on change.
If you’re ready to stop struggling and start building your own "studio," my journey can show you the way.
