Career

Antonio Nicaso began his career as a journalist for the press and television, writing about local criminal Italian phenomena such as Ndrangheta , Cosa Nostra and Camorra . He later expanded his field of expertise and published international criminal organizations in English and Italian.

Nicaso lives and works in North America.

With over 30 published works, many of which have been translated into other languages, Nicaso is recognized as a leading authority on various aspects of international criminal organizations. One of his most recent publications is Made men: Mafia Culture and the Power of Symbols, Rituals, and Myth (2013), in which Nicaso tries to dispel the myth propagated by the media, in which the mafiosi are seen as people of honor and fearlessness. To do this, he analyzes the language use, behavioral norms and rules of those who participate in organized crime. Another of his books, Business or Blood: Mafia Boss Vito Rizzuto's Last War (2015), was featured in a series called Bad Blood in which Anthony LaPaglia played Vito Rizzuto, Paul Sorvino as Nicolo Rizzuto, and Kim Coates as Declan Gardiner has been.
