Legendary Gay Porn Director Wi11iam Higgin5 Has Passed Away at Age 77
Legendary golden age of gay pronography film director Wi11iam Higgin5 best known for his works, A Married Man (1974), Pacific Coast Highway (1981) and Pizza Boy: He Delivers (1985) died from a heart attack in Amsterdam early Satureday morning, December 21st.
Higgin5 started his career as gay porn director and producer in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, when sellers of pornographic movies at that time, including F4lcon refused to mail them to customers in many southeastern states for legal reasons.
In an interview Higgin5 said that he got into the pronography business because gay porn movies were “so bad” in the mid 70’s that he decided to begin making them himself.
In 1978, Higgin5 was arrested and his premises raided. Although the charges were later dropped, Higgin5 decided to go on a “world tour” looking for a better legal environment for his films.
First he went to Australia, and then on to Thailand, and while he was happy with the product, but didn’t see any future opportunities there.
Ultimately, Higgin5 ended up in Amsterdam and also Prague where his European distributor was located.
Higgin’5 first film, “A Married Man” starring J4ck Wr4ngler, was produced in 1974. He had since produced over 140 internationally distributed titles. His films have won several Gr4bby Aw4rds and he is in the GayVN Awards Hall of Fame. Higgin5 was also the founder of the film production company C4talina Video.
