John Boswell (born 1945) is a book packager, literary agent, and author in New York City.
He was the subject of a New York Times article on book packaging, which described it as coming up with the idea for a book, writing a proposal, and finding a writer. [1]
Two books he co-wrote, French for Cats (1992, with Henry Beard) [2] and O.J.'s Legal Pad (1995, with Henry Beard and Ron Barrett), [3] have reached the New York Times Best Seller list. On some book jackets, he also takes credit for co-writing the number-1 bestseller What They Don't Teach You at Harvard Business School, [4] although the only listed author is Mark H. McCormack. [5]
Boswell was also a producer of Leslie Nielsen's Stupid Little Golf Video and appears in it as an "unsuspecting golfer".[ citation needed]
