Bob Guccione, Jr.

Robert Charles Guccione Jr., (born 1956), the son of Bob Guccione, is best known for founding the music magazine Spin. He launched the magazine in 1985 with a loan from his father, who attempted to wrest control of the magazine from him two years later. After this bid proved unsuccessful Guccione, Sr. left the project, forcing his son to find investors to pay off the loan. These events resulted in the estrangement of the pair which lasted for a decade. Guccione Jr. sold the magazine to Vibe in 1997.
