Read previewElon Musk's transgender daughter said the Tesla CEO was an absent father who frequently rebuked her for being queer and feminine as a child.
Wilson, who has stayed out of the public eye until now, told NBC News that Musk's comments went too far.
Wilson told NBC News the book — which described her as being a supporter of "radical Marxism" via a quote from Musk's sister-in-law — was inaccurate and unfair.
Isaacson also referred to Wilson by her middle name, Jenna, in the book, Wilson said.
The author told NBC News that he reached out to Wilson's family members in an effort to reach her.
