He began his career teaching literacy for an anti-poverty program. In August 1965, Crouch witnessed the Watts Riot, an experience that radicalized Crouch.

He played the drums in an avant-garde jazz band and worked as a staff writer for the Village Voice from 1979 to 1988, where he found his talent as a writer.
