John R.Gordan - My Life In Porn: The Bobby Blake Story

“My Life in Porn: the Bobby Blake Story charts the adult film superstar’s meteoric rise to fame and offers a fascinating, funny, and sometimes disturbing insider’s portrait of the adult film entertainment industry. It is also the story of one man’s spiritual struggle, the quest for a meaningful life, for love, and the need for community.

“As the most celebrated black gay porn star in the business, Bobby Blake has seen and been through it all. From his roots as a bisexual black male in the Deep South dealing with a troubled mother, criminal brother, an absentee father, and his own life-threatening health problems, to his early experiences in the porno industry where drugs, racism, and other obstacles presented constant challenges, Blake has come through the other side as exactly the man he wants to be.

"In his tale of a man who went from preacher to porn star and back into the ministry, of sex workers balancing ‘normal’ romantic relationships, the self-destructive behavior of many of his peers, and more, Blake offers a fresh and unique account of his life and a highly-revealing behind-the-scenes picture of the adult film industry. It is a rough ride at times, but an unquestionably exciting one!”
