Herschel Savage (born November 25, 1952) is an American pornographic film actor and pornographic film director.
He was born "Herschel Cohen" to Russian Jewish parents in New York City.[1][3]
He studied acting under Broadway actress Uta Hagen and renowned acting teacher Stella Adler.[3][4][5] Savage initially sought a mainstream stage and screen career, however, he became disillusioned by the constant auditioning and competition for roles.[3][4]
Savage was introduced to the pornographic film industry via the actor R. Bolla in 1976,[4] and he went on to become one of the biggest stars of the "Golden Age of Porn" in the 1970s and 1980s.[4] He appeared in the 1978 classic Debbie Does Dallas, for which he was paid about $150 a day.[5] Some of the other films he has appeared in include Expose Me Now, Bodies in Heat, and Rambone Does Hollywood.[3][5] He left pornography in 1988 and worked in sales and video distribution, also playing a few roles in local theater productions.[3] He then returned to the industry in 1997.[3]
The name "Herschel Savage" was created with Jamie Gillis in an attempt to combine a 'nerdy Jewish identity' with that of a stud.[4]
Savage also launched a fledgling career as a stand up comedian and appeared frequently on the reality TV series Family Business (one episode features a stand-up performance by Savage). He appeared as a guest during the fifth season of the NBC sitcom Just Shoot Me, on an episode called The Proposal (2,) which aired on February 1, 2001. In 2006, he starred in Neil Simon's play The Prisoner of 2nd Avenue, under the stage name "Max Cohen", at the Morgan-Wixson Theater in Santa Monica.[3]
Herschel is a member of the XRCO,[6] Legends of Erotica[7] and AVN[8] Halls of Fame, and he has appeared in more than 1000 films.[3]
