Kevin Owens is an American former professional basketball player, writer, and the host and founder of Overseas Famous.

 In 2021, Owens published a book about his career as an overseas athlete titled, Overseas Famous. The book is a memoir about his nine year career as a for-hire athlete traveling the globe. The book takes the reader around the world through the eyes of a “regular guy” in a 7-foot body.

Owens developed Overseas Famous after a long struggle with depression upon retirement. He had trouble finding work and ended up in a career that was not what he wanted. He created this community as a way to help athletes avoid the struggles he, and many other athletes, face post career.
