Jim Goad Biography

Jim Goad is one of the most popular and richest Author who was born on June 12, 1961 in Ridley Park, Pennsylvania, United States.

Goad graduated in 1985 with a B.A. in Journalism from Temple University while living in New Jersey. In the early 1980s, Goad met Debbie Rosalie, who was eight years older, in New York. They relocated to Los Angeles and were married in 1987. Goad worked at the Los Angeles Reader, covering local news, but wished to cover more fringe subjects, so the couple began publishing their own magazine, “Answer Me!”

From 1991 to 1994, Goad self-published four yearly issues of the zine ANSWER Me!, with then-wife Debbie Goad. It featured illustrations by Nick Bougas. With a circulation of 13,000 the magazine sought to upset politically correct thinkers by covering subjects about race and feminism. The publication was banned and seized by customs officials in several countries, and the final Rape Issue was rejected by some bookstore owners. The zine, called “massively influential” by Bizarre, would also be credited as an inspiration by Francisco Martin Duran, who took 29 shots at the White House, influencing the suicides of three British Neo-Nazis, and a possible influence on Kurt Cobain’s suicide.

Shit Magnet: One Man’s Miraculous Ability to Absorb the World’s Guilt, is Goad’s second book. Major New York publishing houses declined to publish Shit Magnet, and it was published in 2002 by Feral House. The book, written while Goad was in prison, is an autobiography. It examines Goad’s childhood, teenage years, his relationships with former wife Debbie Goad and ex-girlfriend Anne Ryan, and reflections about his time in prison and his experience with the judicial system. The book includes great detail about Oregon prison life, including detailed descriptions about fellow prisoners, of whom he writes “forced sterilization maybe wasn’t such a bad idea.” Writer John Strausbaugh described Shit Magnet as “extremely painful” in detail and comparative in drama to the autobiography of Klaus Kinski. Humor is Dead calls Shit Magnet a “sordid and often shocking personal allegory of guilt and violence.” In 2008, a play titled “Torn Between Two Bitches,” was produced in Los Angeles by Michael Sargent, based on Shit Magnet.
