Marc Wallice (born Marc Stephen Goldberg[3] October 3, 1959) is a former American pornographic actor in adult films. He tested HIV positive in 1998 after allegedly hiding his HIV positive status for two years and infecting several women, sending shock waves throughout the porn industry.[4] He left the industry but later returned as a director, editor, and writer.

Adult film career

Wallice entered the porn industry in 1982 at the age of 22.[1] He was working as a grocery store bagger when he answered an ad for the World Modeling Agency. He started out with non-speaking roles, but worked his way up to become a very active actor, doing more than 1,300 heterosexual and gay porn movies. He has appeared in many anal sex-oriented films, including Erica Boyer's educational film The Fine Art of Anal Sex/Anal Intercourse, in which he demonstrates basic anal-sex techniques.

HIV

On April 30, 1998, the then-head of AIM Medical, Sharon Mitchell, announced that Wallice was HIV positive.[4] Wallice's career as a performer was effectively over and there were rumors and speculation that he intentionally hid his HIV positive status with fake blood work through several HIV testing cycles to continue working,[5] and consequently infected several actresses, including Brooke Ashley,[6] Tricia Devereaux,[7] Jordan McKnight, Caroline and Kimberly Jade.[8][9] After his HIV positive status became public, Wallice announced his intention to go back to school to learn computer programming.[10]
