Scott O'Hara (October 16, 1961 â€" February 18, 1998) was an American
pornographic performer, author, poet, editor and publisher. He rose to
prominence during the mid-1980s for his work in such gay adult films
as Winner Takes All, Below The Belt and In Your Wildest Dreams. O'Hara
wrote four books: SeXplorers: The Guide to Doing It on the Road, Do It
Yourself Piston Polishing (for Non-Mechanics), Autopornography: A
Memoir of Life in the Lust Lane, and Rarely Pure and Never Simple:
Selected Essays of Scott O'Hara, and edited and published the
quarterly men's sex journal Steam and the cultural magazine
Wilde.O'Hara was born John Robert Scott on October 16, 1961 in Grants
Pass, Oregon, one of seven children of Robert Hogue Scott and Martha
Jane (née Farwell) Scott. While the family lived modestly on the
family farm, there was inherited wealth, and for much of his life
Scott was supported by a trust fund. Scott was known professionally as
"Scott O'Hara" or "Spunk" and used his professional name throughout
his adult life. In an essay titled "A Dick by Any Other Name", O'Hara
wrote: "I knew from an early age that I was a changeling. I spent the
next eighteen years looking for my real name, and since I found it I
have not pretended to be anyone else."He first came to prominence when
he was awarded the title "The Man With The Biggest Dick in San
Francisco" in a contest in the early 1980s. That title became his
trademark for the rest of his porn and professional career. Published
measurement of his penis varies from 9.5 to 11 inches. From 1983â€"88,
he appeared in over twenty gay and bisexual-themed adult films and
videos, several of which demonstrate his rare ability of
auto-fellatio. In addition to his work in adult films, O'Hara starred
in Making Porn, a play by Ronnie Larsen based on conversations by
Larsen with Scott O'Hara. He described his work in porn as "a sheer
delight from the word go".After he contracted HIV, offers to appear in
porn ended. In 1991 he moved to Cazenovia, Wisconsin and started a new
career as an author. He edited and published from 1993 to 1995 the
quarterly men's journal Steam, "the intellectual review of public
sex", intended to facilitate cruising. According to its first issue,
Steam focused on "public and semi-public sex. Our purpose is to
provide a sex-positive forum for subjects considered taboo by other
mags. We are aware that many activities mentioned in these pages are
illegal in many parts of the world, and we do not advocate unlawful
activity". In an advertisement in Volume 2, No. 1, he further stated
that the publication was "all about sex â€" all kinds of sex, but
especially public, publicly-disapproved, exciting sex". Articles often
featured rest room, park, and other risky sexual encounters, and every
issue contained tips on cruising spots (public places to meet men for
sex), with notes on their safety or lack of same. Scott O'Hara Biography, NetWorth, Height, Age, Weight, Family, Married, Son, Daughter
