I was semi-successful working actor in Hollywood and making a living, and the writers' strike hit [1987] so I started scrambling like everyone else. And I went on a modeling assignment and I met a woman - Ona Zee - and she asked me if I would like to do some adult films. Knowing my libido, I said, "Sure". I did one, and people liked me and began calling me. My straight career came to a screeching halt. Straight employers rent out tapes but don't like their actors to do X.

My mother and father were around. There were no tragedies to send me into this arena. My parents found out when I decided that I better call them about my boy-girl layout in Penthouse. We don't talk about my adult work.
