Life and career
Kramer was born in Bronx, New York City, the son of Doris and Mickey Kramer, a businessman. On June 30, 2009, his book, Hit Hard: A Story of Hitting Rock Bottom, was published. Kramer is credited with inventing the term Aerosmith. Kramer admitted in his memoir that he conceived the name Aerosmith while listening to Harry Nilsson's album Aerial Ballet in 1968, two years before the band was formed. Kramer maintains that there is no connection between the word "Aerosmith" and Sinclair Lewis' book Arrowsmith.
Kramer was a founding member of The Institution, a seminal New Jersey garage band formed by Philip Rubin, J. Howard Duff, Richie Lester, and Marv Coopersmith in the 1970s. The early Bruce Springsteen band, Steel Mill, opened for The Institution at Newark State College on Nov. 25, 1970. Kramer began attending Berklee College of Music and worked with Chubby & the Turnpikes (later known as Tavares) with Bernie Worrell.
Kramer appeared in the episode "The Ned-Liest Catch," as a former Bart's tutor, as well as the entire band to guest star on the show. In 2015, NECA introduced a "Simpsons-ized" action figure of Kramer, as well as other Aerosmith employees as part of the company's fourth series of the Simpsons 25th Anniversary collectible figure series.
Kramer did a fan Q&A in June 2011 and revealed his open-mindedness to non-writers, claiming that he doesn't care about it as long as it is all five members of Aerosmith playing the script.
Kramer also introduced his latest collaboration with Comfort Foods, Inc., who now roasts, bags, and exports his entire bean, organic coffee line: Rockin' & Roastin' Coffee.
In 2015, he announced a joint venture with Les Otten, the Boston Red Sox's former vice chairman, to open two Joey Kramer's Rockin' & Roastin' Café and Restaurant locations in Newry, Maine, and North Attleborough, Massachusetts. In 2017, the North Attleborough location was closed. In 2016, the Newry, Maine location closed.
Linda Kramer's wife, Linda, died on June 22, 2022, at the age of 55.
