Mark Dalton (born Jeremy James Son) is an American pornographic actor (porn star) who has appeared in gay pornographic movies and pornographic magazines. His work in gay porn films to date has not involved any sexual acts with another man; Dalton has only masturbated on screen. Having stated that he has had many girlfriends but "is curious about the gay side" of his sexuality, some believe he will probably perform in hardcore sex scenes in the future. [1]

Dalton spoke to the subject in an interview with Mark's List, a Florida Gay and Lesbian travel and entertainment website. Gio, the interviewer, commented that Dalton had "appeared on the cover of pretty much every major gay publication and in such a short time." ."[2] He went on, "you have only done solo work on film, do you think you will ever go more hardcore and do a sex scene with another man?" Dalton responded, "I’m not sure really.... But, never say never. It is nothing that I am against; I just have not made that choice yet."[2]

Dalton was nominated for the 2002 Adult Erotic Gay Video Awards ("Grabby") "Best Newcomer" award. [3] However, he did not win—Matt Summers and Bret Wolfe tied for the honor.

An avid bodybuilder, Dalton has appeared in bodybuilding ("muscle" or "fitness") magazines as well as erotic and/or pornographic publications. Apparently his appearances in erotic magazines have not been limited to gay publications; his website states that he appeared on the back cover of an issue of Playgirl magazine and was included in its "100 Sexiest Men Alive" in 2002, ranking in the top 50.[4]

He is by no means the only person to have appeared in muscle magazines and subsequently appeared in gay porn; [5] Brett Mycles [6] and Marco Rossi [7] (credited as Marco Maniello in the fitness magazines) have gone on to do gay porn films and have had sex with other men; Joe Reitano has worked as a model for COLT Studio Group [8] and, appearing as "Anthony Capriati", masturbated in a Can-Am production, Workout. [9]

Dalton is the cover model for nearly all of his work; he has appeared on the cover of all but one of his videos, Body Storm. He appeared on the front cover of the June 2004 issue of Men's Workout [10] [4] and most recently was on the front cover of the July 2006 issue of Unzipped magazine. [11] [12] He appeared on the cover of the July 2002 issue of Men [13] and appeared on that publication's December 2002 cover as Men's "Man of the Year 2002". [14] Some of the other publications where he has been the cover model are All Man, DNA, Torso, Dude, Indulge, and Jock.

Photographer Ron Williams used Dalton for the cover of the 2002 edition of Miami Heatwave; published by the renowned photographer Bruno Gmunder. [15] Dalton was also the cover model for the Adam Gay Video 2003 Directory, the gay porn industry's leading publication of information about the movies, performers, and directors for films for the previous year. [16] He was also used for the cover of an issue of the Adam Gay Video XXX Showcase, the organization's review magazine published throughout the year between issues of the Directory.

In 2002 Dalton, whose real name is Jeremy James Son, was convicted of possession of the drug GHB. In 2004, a female friend testified that he had assaulted her and a judge revoked Dalton's probation and sentenced him to 5 years in prison. After serving just over a year of his sentence, he was released on parole in November 2005 Speaking to a reporter from the Dallas Voice, a local gay and lesbian newspaper, he said the worst part of being in prison was not being able to work out and the "horrible food". Dalton said that he would cut down on partying and hoped to return to work modeling in bodybuilding magazines and acting in videos. [17]

The Dallas Voice reported in August 2006 that Dalton and fellow porn performer Zeb Atlas were making a film that they hoped to release by December 14. Dalton hails from Denton, Texas and his agent said that parts of the project were to be filmed in North Texas. [18]
