Neil Anderson is a Sheffield-based author and journalist who first came to prominence in the mid-1990s with the Dirty Stop Out’s Guide to Sheffield which was published at the height of the dance club explosion of the era. This tour around the highlights and lowlights of Sheffield at night attracted critical acclaim from titles including The Rough Guide to England, DJ Magazine and The Times.

His Take It To The Limit book about legendary venue The Limit, which ran on Sheffield’s West Street from 1978 to 1991, became a best-seller in 2009. Launched by Sex Pistol Glen Matlock, the book’s launch party was attended by members of the Human League, Pulp, Artery, Vice Versa (who later became ABC) and other bands who played early gigs at the venue.

Sheffield’s Date With Hitler was published in 2010 to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the Sheffield Blitz. The book formed the basis of BBC1’s Sheffield The Forgotten Blitz documentary and followed over a year of research and attempts to explain why the city’s munitions works were largely missed by the Luftwaffe on December 12 and 15, 1940.

Also in 2010, Anderson wrote Signing On For The Devil which chronicled Sheffield’s heavy metal music dominance in the 1980s.

His Dirty Stop Out’s Guide to 1970s Sheffield became known countrywide as the book that reunited Chris and Ann Jackson and inspired them to get remarried after 26 years apart.

Anderson is a regular contributor to the international music magazine Vive Le Rock. He is working on projects including citywide plans to mark the 75th anniversary of the Sheffield Blitz and the Dirty Stop Out's Guide to 1960s London with Peter Stringfellow.

He also runs PR/publishing company Neil Anderson Media.
