Biography
Joe is the younger brother of Naomi King and the older brother of Owen King, and grew up in Bangor, Maine. He chose to abbreviate his name, in a reference to an executed labor leader, in order to earn a reputation as a writer of merit on his own. After achieving a degree of independent success, he publicly confirmed his identity in 2007 after an article the previous year in Variety broke his cover.
