Prasad established Innerviews, the Internet's first and longest-running music magazine, in 1994. He is celebrated for his special ability to get his subjects to confide and reflect in ways they rarely do with other interviewers.
"Anil Prasad is like a great musician," says Victor Wooten. "The way he expresses himself through his own art - his writing - causes readers to feel inspired, as if we've learned about ourselves, as well as the subject of the interview."
"Prasad does splendid interviews with an amazing mix of musicians in Innerviews: Music Without Borders," says Vijay Iyer. "He takes the artists work seriously and meets it on its own terms, which is a sign of true generosity on his part."
