Biography: Peter North (also known as Al Brown, Matt Ramsey) is a prolific Canadian male porn star, director and producer of the 1980s, 1990s, and 2000s. He is one of the most famous male performers in pornography.
North was born Alden Brown on May 11, 1957. He is originally from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, but moved to California, United States, in 1982. Thousands of dollars in debt, Alden entered the porn business at age 24 to make money. Because they pay more, he first appeared in gay porn films under the name "Matt Ramsey". After about two dozen gay porn films in which he performed in both the top and bottom roles, he made a switch to straight porn exclusively. He has since talked very little of his gay porn history, and at times, has denied it altogether. "It was not a part of my sexuality at all. I was only able to do it because of my strong mind and my physical ability to have control over my own body," North confessed. "I had to do it, and I did it."
North shot to fame with his memorable facials. He is most noted for his ability to produce very large amounts of semen, and for his powerful ejaculations. He has averaged 8-10 ejaculations per climax since the start of his career in the porn industry over two decades ago. Female co-stars like Jenna Jameson confirm his volume of ejaculation to be real, with no movie trickery involved. Peter North has stated that his ejaculations have always been of a high volume and that he didn't know it was above the norm until he began his career in the porn industry. At the climax of sex scenes, North's ejaculations could last twenty seconds and upwards of a minute and a half.
North is tightly-circumcised, and is known for having an exceptionally large penis both in length and girth, as well as for having rock-hard erections. Many porn starlets have attested to this fact, particularly Kaitlyn Ashley and Jewel DeNyle. The size of North's penis, reported to be 8.5 inches in length by 6 inches in girth, is amongst the largest of all current male porn stars, as claimed by female co-stars Kelly O'Dell, Harmony, and others. Hence, people in the industry refer to "the North pole."
North has appeared in well over 1,000 pornographic movies, performing on camera with nearly every notable porn actress of the past twenty years. North also became involved in the government's 1986 investigation of Traci Lords' underage involvement in the industry in the mid-1980s. Lords was underage when she made most of her movies, including some sex scenes with North. The government eventually dropped the investigation. He has also directed more than 70 movies (notably, his North Pole and Anal Addicts series), and produced over 20 movies amongst which, 15 of the North Pole series.
In 1994, Peter North released a guide to meeting and dating beautiful women, Penetrating Insights (Morris Publishing, 1994). Its purpose is to help the reader meet more women and to get on the track to getting results. The book also includes tips on everything from grooming to personal health.
North is a member of both the X-Rated Critics Organization (XRCO) and the Adult Video News (AVN) Hall of Fame.
