Hubert Selby Jr. was born in Brooklyn in 1928. His childhood nickname 'Cubby' stuck with him throughout his life. At the age of 15, he dropped out of school and went to sea with the merchant marines. While at sea he was diagnosed with lung disease. With no other way to make a living, he decided to try writing: "I knew the alphabet. Maybe I could be a writer".
In 1964 he completed his first book, Last Exit to Brooklyn, which has since become a cult classic. In 1966, it was the subject of an obscenity trial in the UK.
