Controversial porn director Bobby Hollander died at Los Angeles of
cancer on Thursday March 7, according to several sites reporting on
the billion dollar porn biz. A Google search under his name will yield
the particulars of his career. This notice is being penned not to
celebrate his life, but to notify porn fans around the world of the
news since it won't be printed in the major media.

On a personal note - I never met Hollander but overheard a
conversation in 1992 at the Saraha Hotel ballroom in Las Vegas where
the industry convened during the CES show in those years. The
conversation was between four or five female porn stars and it was
about Hollander's alleged habit of offering cocaine to the women.
Hollander was also interviewed during a PBS show on the life and death
of porn starlet Shauna Grant.

I wonder if his last words were "Oh, Fuck!".

Sorry, couldn't resist.

I think that's what he used to say instead of "Action!"

Was there anything "controversial" about him aside from the nature of the
industry he worked in?

...well, there _was_ the fact that he tried to heavily push his Shauna Grant
catalogue right after her suicide...of course, images of dead people having sex
kinda cast a pall over the proceedings, y'know...

Daevid, I presume that the film was shot before she was dead. 'cause if it was
shot afterwards, that would be, uh ... well, pretty kinky. And not exactly an
unheard of kink, either ;)

...well, smut fans of the time have argued (accurately from what I saw) that, while
Grant was alive during the filming, her performances certainly were not...
