36 Millennium - A Marquis Who’s Who Magazine ARTS, MEDIA AND ENTERTAINMENT Anthony J. Michaels desired to pursue the arts from a formative age. Always interested in artistic endeavors, he frequently drew pictures for the walls of local tattoo shops as a teenager. As he got older and graduated high school, he became well regarded in his community for his concurrent skills in athleticism, particularly in basketball. He attended Pima Community College prior to commencing his career in tattooing and has since accrued more than 10 years of experience in the tattoo world. Since 2018, Mr. Michaels has been the owner of Twenty Five Twelve Collective in Tucson, Arizona. Also an acclaimed artist at the tattoo studio, he is most notable for appearing on Spike TV’s famous show “Ink Master,” where he won the show’s grand prize during season seven in 2016. By doing so, he became the very first artist on the show to win the competition with the least amount of experience among all the other contestants. Additionally, regarded as being one of television’s most likeable and relatable reality television stars, he was invited back to “Ink Master” during their 10th season in 2018 to serve as a coach to new competitors. Twenty Five Twelve Collective is comprised of several other artists who complete a full portfolio of work in all tattooing styles, including photo realism, portraits and script work.
