Personal life and education
Kozloff is the single child of Max and Joyce Kozloff. His mother Joyce is an artist and feminist that sought to remove art "from an elitist context to a more humane, egalitarian view" while his father Max is a photographer, critic and historian. The family is not religious but states that they recognize their Jewish culture.
Kozloff studied in Britain at Oxford University and received a doctorate in Latin American history from the university.
Works
An expert on South American affairs, Kozloff formerly worked for the leftist think tank Council on Hemispheric Affairs. Kozloff has been described as a supporter of Venezuelan president Hugo Chávez by The Heritage Foundation and his book Hugo Chávez : Oil, Politics and the Challenge to the United States was described as "generally positive in its treatment of" Chávez and his Bolivarian Revolution by Marxist magazine Political Affairs. The New York Times described the book as "essentially Marxist" filled with "new-lefty rhetoric" that was an "admiring study of Mr. Chávez".
Kozloff also founded the Revolutionary Handbook, described as "a project which aims to inform discussion about how to bring about non-violent revolutionary change" that was influenced "by the Occupy Wall Street Movement". He has also began studying the tensions between the east and west, Vladimir Putin as well as the Ukrainian crisis.
