Template:Male adult bio Mr. Marcus (born on September 4, 1970 in Pomona, California) is an American pornographic actor. He specializes in interracial pornography.
Career
At 16 he started lifting weights. It is believed that at around that age he became interested in adult material. He worked as a male exotic dancer, truck driver, and warehouse forklift driver between the ages of 18 and 23.
He got his start in porn by simply getting the phone number (from the trade/newspaper L.A. X-Press) of the then prominent producer Randy Detroit. It was at the 1994 AVN Adult convention where he met director/producer Ron Hightower and female performer Juanita Chong, who on sight recommended that he begin a career in adult films.
