Yousefzada was born in 1977 to an artisanal Sunni Muslim Pashtun family in Birmingham.

He also received an MPhil from Cambridge University.

Besides being an artist, Osman is working as a research practitioner at the Royal College of Art and is a visiting fellow at Jesus College, Cambridge.

Osman has written on various themes of Race, Labour and marginalised communities.

In 2022 he published an memoir, called 'The Go Between'.

The memoir gives an insight about growing up in the 80's in Birmingham, in a closed Pakistani migrant community.

The book has received critical acclaim.

Stephen Fry reviewed it as 'One of the greatest childhood memoirs of our time'.

Hanif Kureishi has said that it was 'Poetic and moving' and The Guardian reviewed it as magic behind closed doors.

Yousefzada launched his eponymous label, Osman, in 2008.
