Career

Brandon helped set up Raging Stallion Studios and has stated that he started in porn after answering an ad in Frontiers magazine.[5] He began his career in porn in the late 1980s as a young man but fell into drugs and prison and didn't return until 1999.[5] He also directed, produced, and wrote Passport to Paradise.[6]

After a release from prison, Brandon rose to the level of porn super-star. He appeared in nearly 200 films between 1999 and 2006 and eventually directed his own line of films known as the MonsterBang videos.[7] He has had an award-winning website at www.xxxmichaelbrandon.com and engaged in what appeared to be a very busy escorting career that was documented on his website and on an online escort review site www.Daddysreviews.com.[7]

Brandon won the "Performer of the Year" for 2001 GayVN Awards and tied for that same award for 2002 with Colton Ford.[8] At the 2002 Adult Erotic Video Awards ("The Grabbys"), he was named with Chad Hunt as "Best Performers".[9] Brandon was added to the "Grabby Wall of Fame" in 2003[10] and received a "Surprise Award" Grabby for "Hottest Cock" in 2005.[11]
