Hanna was born in Portland, Oregon and attended The Evergreen State College in Olympia, Washington in the late 1980s, where she published [[zines]] and got involved in underground music and running an art gallery. Hanna and [[Tobi Vail]], editor of [[Jigsaw]], did a zine called [[Revolution Girl Style Now]] and, together with Kathi Wilcox, wrote the zine [[Bikini Kill]] as a response to what they saw as sexism in the [[punk]] rock scene. The three women then formed a band of the same name.  After Bikini Kill relocated to D.C. in 1991, Hanna contributed to the zine that [[Allison Wolfe]] and [[Molly Neuman]], editors of [[Girl Germs]] and founders of the band Bratmobile, were publishing, called [[riot grrrl (zine)|riot grrrl]], which helped motivate the emerging feminist sentiment in the punk scene with a call to action. The result was an exciting movement called [[Riot Grrrl]] that captured national attention and was the inspiration for quite a few zines and bands. When Riot Grrrl came under intense corporate media scrutiny and exploitation, several women called for a media blackout and this eliminated the movement's presence in the mainstream media; however, it carried on underground and it's effect on the music and zine scenes continue to last to this day...
