Biography

Humphry Knipe was born in Kimberley, South Africa, on September 20, 1941. He graduated Rhodes University majoring in History and English.

He moved to England in the 1960s, where he met his future wife, erotic photographer Suze Randall. They immigrated to Los Angeles in 1975, and wrote about their experiences in Hugh Hefner's Playboy Mansion in the book Suze. (Hefner didn't like the book and stopped admitting them to the mansion.)

Mostly in the 1980s, Knipe wrote and directed several Suze Randall produced pornographic films under the nom de porn Victor Nye. One of their more famous actresses was Traci Lords, later found to be underage.[1]

The couple now reside in Malibu, California, where he manages Randall's erotic web sites, [2] and administers much of the business of Suze Randall Productions as Haaren Enterprises, Ltd., using his first name, Victor Knipe.[3] [4]

They have three children, including daughter Holly Randall, an erotic photographer who also assists in the business.
