There are a few porn stars that have staying power decades later -- Dick Fisk, Jon King, Chad Douglas, Joey Stefano, and Al Parker to name a few. For the past year or so, Jack and I (along with Raging Stallion director Ben Leon) have been in production on a documentary about the early history of the porn industry (we'll post a trailer for the project shortly) and lately I've become obsessed with another one: Kurt Marshall.

Falcon exclusive Marshall, who dated Falcon Studios founder Chuck Holmes in the mid 80s, was, in many ways, the epitome of the Falcon style -- blond, athletic, devilish. William Higgins once told me that the difference between Falcon stars and those cast by men like him, Matt Sterling and Jon Summers was that Falcon stars were "professional gays" and unrepentantly sexual.

In addition to my recent masturbatory fascination with Kurt, it seemed appropriate to put him up on Pride. As he once told an interviewer

"I think to be gay is to be blessed. We have so much freedom, so many choices. This isn't our moment to party or to think we're going to stay young forever...maybe it's our time to find someone to be safe with...to be happy with..."

Happy Prides!
