Jay Levin
Jay Levin is an American journalist who was founder, editor and CEO of the ''LA Weekly'', one of the seminal newspapers of the weekly alternative press in the United States, from 1978 to 1992. ==Early life== Jay Levin was born in New York, the son of a tool-and-die maker. He worked for the ''New York Post'' and was also a freelance writer. Levin was hired in 1978 by Larry Flynt to edit the ''Los Angeles Free Press'', which Flynt purchased at the end of that year.〔("Flynt Buys L.A. Free Press," ) ''Sarasota Herald-Tribune'', December 29, 1977.〕 Levin attempted to transform the ''Free Press'', which had gone from a 1960s-style underground newspaper to one with a large adult advertising section, into a West Coast version of the ''Village Voice''. Levin hired Texas writers Big Boy Medlin, Ginger Varney, and Michael Ventura, as well as Anita Hoffman (wife of then-fugitive Abbie Hoffman). (Levin's tenure at the Free Press was short, about ten weeks, as Flynt’s wife Althea shut down the publication in 1978, following her husband’s shooting.)
