Michael DeCapite was born in Cleveland, Ohio. His first novel, Through the Windshield, was written in London and New York from 1985 to 1990. Although the book gained a small underground reputation by way of published excerpts, readings, and word of mouth, it was unable to find a publisher until it was brought out by Sparkle Street Books, in 1998. DeCapite's short story "Sitting Pretty" was published as a CUZ Edition in 1999 and then included in The Italian American Reader (William Morrow 2003, HarperCollins 2005). During 2003 and 2004, he wrote Radiant Fog, a column for the monthly Cleveland arts magazine angle. In 2006, he completed a second novel, RUINED FOR LIFE! He lives in Brooklyn.
