Jon Dough Passes Away
By: Dan Miller, AVM
Posted: 3:00 pm PDT 8-28-2006


CHATSWORTH, Calif. - AVN Hall of Fame performer Jon Dough passed away
on Sunday, Monique Demoan, his wife of 12 years told AVN.com. Dough,
whose real name was Chet Anuszek, was 43.

"I've been with Chet for 12 years. We have a four-year-old daughter,"
Demoan said. "We lived together. I found Chet yesterday. ... He did
take his own life."

Demoan, who met Dough when she worked with him in Ed Powers' Dr. Butts
3, continued, "Chet was a very warm, loving person.

"We fell deeply in love. He treated me very well. He put me on a
pedestal and gave me everything we need. I loved him being a big man,
and being held in his arms. He made me feel very comfortable, very
loved... He was everything to me. And I bear his only daughter."

Adult performer Brian Surewood knew Dough for over a decade, even
before Surewood began performing.

"He's always gave me phenomenal advice," Surewood said. "I worked
next to him in scenes hundreds of times. We were good friends. I knew
he was going through some problems. I tried to help him out before with
his problems."

Dough, who grew up Pennsylvania, is also survived by his father and
three sisters.

Producer/director Mike John said Monday he knew Dough for about 10
years.

"He was just a really, really solid guy with a big heart," John said.
"We had a lot of common interests outside of the business. We used to
go up to Mammoth snowboarding quite a bit, just regular stuff that
people do."

John continued, "He had a lot of problems... He bounced around a lot
with deals. He was a strong-willed guy. It's very surprising to me
that he would go out like this. We all tried. He had a lot of people
around him but I think he just isolated himself lately. I hadn't talked
to him in two months."

John, one of the top gonzo shooters in adult, called Dough "a real
innovator."

"A lot of the things he did went on to get copied wildly. We were just
all sitting around talking, [Erik Everhard] and a bunch of us and we
were saying he was one of the only guys to span the generations.
There's Tommy Byron, Marc Wallice, Ron Jeremy and Jon was one of those
second generation guys. And to the last day, he was the only one who
would get in the trenches with the new upstarts and show them what was
up.

"As a shooter, he was always full of good ideas. How many teen lines
are there now? He was the first guy that said, 'let's put their
id's up, and block their names and addresses.' He was the real deal.
He lived it. In the end though, I think it just wore him down. I've
talked him back a million times."

John said that Dough had aspirations of mainstream acting before he got
into porn.

"He was doing some soap operas and he got an offer to do a Hustler
layout. He could do it, it worked, and he got more and more calls.
Before you knew it, he was in this," John recalled. "Chet was kind of a
wild guy. He was the first contract guy ever [for Vivid]. That was
something that had never been donie before. Girls liked him and he was
into having a good time."

Dough, who began performing in 1985 and has appeared in several classic
adult films, has well over 1,000 titles to his credit as an actor. He
has directed over 70 titles, most recently for Hustler, NJ Films and
Anabolic.

Vince Vouyer, co-owner of Vouyer Media and a 15-year adult industry
veteran, knew Dough for the last 14.

"Me and Chet weren't hanging out having coffee, drinking beer
together-type-of friends, but we had a lot of respect for each other
throughout the years," Vouyer told AVN.com Tuesday. "We've always been
good to each other. I've worked on a lot of projects with him over the
years, some with Vivid, and he was one of the good guys in the business
who I actually liked.

"Unfortunately, the past few years have been rough, and he's had some
dependency problems. I don't know what led up to this. I haven't
been in touch. I tried to put him in some scenes in the past four
months. He had been available and then he wasn't available. He's been
calling me and I've been trying to get him in some scenes, but I hadn't
been able to reach him."

Vouyer added, "He was definitely a good woodsman. I've never seen him
have bad days. "

In his film The World's Luckiest Man (1997) (V), he has sex with 101
women. It was shot over a grueling three-day period.

Not surprising since, according to his obit, he was not only a
shooter, but a real woodsman who would show the new upstarts what was
up. You've gotta hand it to him.

I think sex with 101 women in three days would be draining.

Maybe his epitaph will be the one suggested by his business associate: "He
definitely was a good woodsman."

What a life.

...I just read Eli Cross' blog about Dough's suicide. Cross claims that
Dough was a consistently miserable, surly bastard to the vast majority
of people in the smut biz...Cross also says working for Hustler's video
wing is enough to drive _anyone_ to suicide...

It's kinda easy to
understand his suicide. There's really nothing more to look forward to
after you've done 101 women in 3 days.

Shrike!

Death of a Woodsman

Jon Dough is dead: "'The exploitation of the male' in the adult
business, porn star Nina Hartley told me, 'is very distinct, in that
he must cut off his dick from his heart.' This wasn't as true in the
days when the porn world was more of a community that sustained a
certain collegiality and longer-term relationships. 'Now, it's much
more assembly-line nature.' And those who can't shut their hearts and
minds off, she said, get chewed up in the gears." --Stiffed: The
Betrayal of the American Man

And how many would he have done it with if he were not being paid?

Counting "scores" where bribery is concerned is not fair play...
