Spillane was the author (although his distained that word and preferred to be called simply a writer) of I, the Jury and other gritty crime thrillers featuring tough guy private detective Mike Hammer.
Mickey Spillane is also the subject of a current biography written by Max Allan Collins and James L. Traynor.
I read and enjoyed the biography, called Spillane: The King of Pulp Fiction, and my interview with the authors will appear in my upcoming On Crime column in the Washington Times.
