Tom Byron

Tom Byron's Porn Star BiographyWhen Byron first started acting in hardcore films in May 1982, he played mostly the young schoolboy or "coming of age" roles due to the fact that he looked like a teenager, even though he was in his early to mid 20s. He starred alongside Traci Lords in many movies including her first one in early 1984, What Gets Me Hot!. He was also known to have had an ongoing off-screen relationship with Lords.The Chameleon of PornByron has changed his image several times throughout his career, going from clean-shaven adolescent to a hard rocker look. Later in his career, he took on the appearance of a clean cut "businessman." His late 1980s long-haired hard rock persona was no pretense, as Byron was at that time moonlighting as a struggling musician in Los Angeles with hopes of a career in music. His sexuality has always been something he played with as well, a fact that is punctuated by his having confirmed the authenticity of a series of pictures which depict him performing oral sex on a transsexual.Acting and Directing CreditsIn August of 2002, Byron announced his retirement from performing to focus on his directing career, but in the fall of 2005, after just three years, he returned to performing in numerous scenes, most notably his House of Ass series for his own company, Evolution Erotica. Byron has also performed for other production companies as well, including Zero Tolerance, Pure Play Media, Vivid, Evil Angel, and many more. Over the course of his long career, Byron has appeared in more than 3000 titles, an astonishing number! Byron has directed over 70 films, his most notable being the Cumback Pussy series for Elegant Angel. Along with fellow directors Van Damage and Rob Black, and performer Tiffany Mynx, Byron left Elegant Angel in 1998 to form a new company, Extreme Associates.
