    Ahmet Zappa Facts

  • He was named by his father after famous music executive Ahmet Ertegün, who was greatly admired by Frank Zappa.
  • In July 2006, he published his debut fiction book, The Monstrous Memoirs of a Mighty McFearless, which was written for young readers. The movie rights were acquired by Disney and Bruckheimer Films.
  • He is the founder of the production company, Monsterfoot Productions. The first movie made under his production house was The Odd Life of Timothy Green, which had Jennifer Garner in the starring role.
  • While growing up, he struggled with dyslexia and had to drop out of school at the age of 12.
  • Following the death of his mother, each Ahmet and his sister Diva were given a 30% share in the Zappa Family Trust along with control of the trust. Their siblings Dweezil and Moon were handed an individual 20% share. This apparent mismatch in the distribution has been the cause of a bitter fight between the siblings. Reportedly, they later legally reconciled their differences with Dweezil noting “It may be a bumpy road at times – we are a passionate Italian family – but we have decided to work toward privately discussing issues rather than using public forums and lawyers.”
