Der aus den USA stammende Rockmusiker wurde im September 1949 in New Jersey geboren. Seine Eltern sollen Augenzeugen nach sehr streng katholisch gewesen sein. Von seinem aus einer irisch-holländischen Verbindung stammenden Vater soll Bruce Springsteen zwar einige Hobbys, nicht aber seine Lebenseinstellung übernommen haben. Die Franziskaner Schule empfand er deshalb eher als Gefängnis und wechselte deshalb in eine staatliche Highscool, wo er auch wesentlich mehr Freiheiten für sein aufkommendes Interesse für die Pomusik fand. Er begann im Alter von zehn Jahren mit dem Gitarrespiel. Der Countryeinfluss in seiner Musik ist eine Prägung durch die Großeltern. Mit sechzehn Jahren trat er das erste Mal mit den Castiles auf. Nur drei Jahre später startete er mit der ersten eigenen Band, die sich allerdings nach wenigen Monaten wieder auflöste. Zeitgleich traf er mit Musikern zusammen, die sich dann unter dem Namen Child und später auch Steel Mill vereinten. Die Jahre bis 1972 spielte er in ständig wechselnden Bands, mit denen er auch die ersten zwei Platten aufnahm, die jedoch nicht den erhofften Erfolg brachten. Erst 1975 passte alles. Born to Run stieg bis in die Top 5 der Charts auf. Immer wieder wechselte er die Stilrichtungen, konnte damit beim Publikum stets punkten. Sein bisher letztes Projekt ist das 2009 erschiene Album Working on a Dream, das sich ebenfalls zum Verkaufsschlager zu entwickeln scheint.
