Randy West (born Andrew Jay Abrams October 12, 1947) is a pornographic actor (porn star) who began his career in 1978. Originally from somewhere in New York State, he originally hoped to play professional baseball someday (played baseball for the University of Miami), but he instead decided to pursue a career as a singer. He performed with several rock bands and decided to move to California in the early 1970s to pursue his musical career. He became a producer of adult films in 1993 and has appeared in over 1,300 films.

In August 1980 he posed as the centerfold model in Playgirl magazine. Later he also was cast as Robert Redford's body double in the film Indecent Proposal. He has worked with numerous porn actresses early on in their careers, most notably Jenna Jameson and Tera Patrick.

With such series as Up and Cummers (1-128), I Love Lesbians, Real Female Masturbation (and others), Randy West's videos focused on "Real people having real sex - what a novel idea!" In one final video he stated that one of his greatest pleasures was watching his female partners have orgasms. Episodes had a fairly standard format: A short interview with the female performer to establish some background facts. Whether these were somewhat fictionalized or not, the chat established the young lady as an individual. Then came a succession of sex acts, each with the female performer an avid participant, including in almost every case, her orgasm.

He is also listed at number 29 on the "List of Top 50 Porn Stars of All Time" by Adult Video News magazine.
