BiographyEvan Alan Wright (December 12, 1964 – July 12, 2024) was an American writer, known for his reporting on subcultures for Rolling Stone and Vanity Fair. He was best known for his book on the Iraq War, Generation Kill (2004). He also wrote an exposé about a top Central Intelligence Agency officer (Ric Prado) who allegedly worked as a Mafia hitman, How to Get Away with Murder in America (2012).

Although some compare his writings to those of Hunter S. Thompson, Wright claimed his biggest literary influences were authors Mark Twain and Christopher Isherwood. The New York Times called his military writing "nuanced and grounded in details often overlooked in daily journalistic accounts" and noted his use of "gallows humor".
