Legs McNeil is the co-author of Please Kill Me: The Uncensored Oral History of Punk, a book widely hailed as the Punk "Bible". One of the founders of the seminal Punk magazine that gave the movement its name, he is a former editor at Spin and editor-in-chief of Nerve. He is also the co-author of The Other Hollywood: The Uncensored Oral History of the Porn Film Industry, and co-wrote the book "I Slept With Joey Ramone: A Family Memoir" with Mickey Leigh.
