Nicholas Bush is a reformed drug addict who works with addicts and criminals in halfway houses and prisons to help them turn their lives around. He began combatting his own addiction after losing a sister and a brother to drug overdoses. Bush has written articles related to opioid addiction for USA Today, PBS, and the Johns Hopkins Medical Journal, and been featured on The Today Show. He is from Green Bay, Wisconsin, but currently resides in Kansas City, Missouri, with his wife and young daughters.

“Bush’s memoir opens with a bang…Readers looking for the pervasiveness of despair and addiction, look no further; Bush’s family is certainly representative. That’s the central message of [One by One], which tracks matter-of-factly—without the war-story glorification of too many recovery books—what it means to be boxed in by drugs.”—Kirkus Reviews"Nicholas Bush, thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing your story. Thank you for writing this book."—Craig Melvin, host of The Today Show"A great read."—Cynthia Newsome, midday anchor for 41 Action News
