Steve Holmes (born 23 March 1961) is a Romanian pornographic actor, producer and director. He has received several adult industry awards, including the AVN Award for Male Foreign Performer of the Year in 2005 and 2006.[3] In 2017, Holmes was inducted into the AVN Hall of Fame.[3]
Early life
Holmes was born to Transylvanian Saxon parents in Sibiu, Romania.[4] In the summer of 1968, while on holiday in Bulgaria, Holmes and his family crossed the Turkish border.[4] Upon arrival at the German Embassy in Istanbul, they sought political asylum.[4] Holmes eventually returned to Romania to visit family.[4]
After dropping out of school, Holmes began working in fashion.[5] He eventually became an assistant buyer for several clothing stores.[5] While attending a computer show in Munich, he decided to enter the tech industry.[5] On 1 January 1986, Holmes started working as a sales representative for an IT company.[5] He continued to work in the tech industry for several years.[6]
Career
Holmes spent most of 1996 attempting to break into the adult film industry with little success.[7] Prior to performing in porn, Holmes sought permission from his wife.[7] On 22 November 1996, he performed in his first pornographic scene in Dortmund, Germany.[7] The scene was part of an amateur series called Have a Wish.[7] Holmes wasn't compensated for the shoot.[4] While giving an interview, he was instructed by a reporter to adopt the stage name "Steve Holmes" due to his similar appearance to that of actor John Holmes.[5][8]
In 2001, Holmes won the NINFA Award for Best Supporting Actor at the Barcelona International Erotic Film Festival.[9] That same year, he met Manuel Ferrara on a shoot for Rocco Siffredi.[10] After hitting it off, the two went on to produce the film series Euro Girls Never Say No and The Pussy Is Not Enough.[10][11] In 2003, Holmes performed in over 280 scenes.[10] That same year, Holmes became one of five charter directors for Platinum X Pictures; other notable directors included Jewel De'Nyle, Michael Stefano and Ferrara.[12][13]
In 2004, Holmes received the XRCO Award for Unsung Swordsman.[14] He also received the AVN Award for Male Foreign Performer of the Year for two consecutive years in 2005 and 2006.[15][16] In 2006, Holmes signed a directing deal with Mach 2 Entertainment to direct one film a month.[17] In late 2007, he performed in his first scene featuring bondage for Kink.com.[7] He developed the site Public Disgrace with fellow performer Princess Donna.[7] In May 2020, Holmes launched his own website, which features an archive of over 3,000 scenes he's performed in throughout his career.[18]
Personal life
In 2017, Holmes and his wife celebrated 26 years of marriage.[7] He currently resides in California.[18] He is close friends with directors Greg Lansky and Mike Adriano.[19]
While shooting a scene for Public Disgrace in Barcelona, Holmes and Princess Donna were arrested by local authorities.[1] The two were released shortly after.[1]
