baseline-skip can go to zero, but has no effect beyond 0. That
is, you can make them touch, but not overlap.
Negative \vspace is probably what you want:
\markup {
\fill-line {
\column \center-align {
\fontsize #13 "Geir Rafnsson"
\vspace #-1
\fontsize #7 "(Extreme Measures)"
} % column
} % fill-line
} % markup
