Alvin "Al" Goldstein (b. January 10, 1936, New York City) is a former American publisher and pornographer. His company Milky Way Productions, owner of Screw, and the long-running cable TV show, Midnight Blue was started in 1968 and went into bankruptcy in 2004. His mansion in Pompano Beach, Florida, complete with backyard 11-foot middle finger statue, was sold in June 2004 to pay debts.
In 2002 he was found guilty of harassing a former employee, doing such things as publishing her number in Screw and encouraging readers to call her, and sentenced to 60 days in prison. The charges were appealed and eventually overturned, but not before serving six days behind bars. As part of the plea bargain, Goldstein apologized for his action.
He received three years’ probation for harassment of his third wife. Goldstein was arrested for shoplifting. In 2004 he worked at the Second Avenue Deli, owned by a friend, as a greeter. In 2005, he was homeless until the magician Penn Jillette paid for an apartment for him.
