Career

Famed for the apparent size of his penis, reputedly 18 inches (46 cm), he appeared in several pornographic movies in the UK and US during the late 1970s and early 1980s. Photographer Jay Myrdal said though Silver "was immensely endowed… a good nine or ten inches",[1] the penis featured in his porn shoots was faked. After at first using “complicated multi-exposure techniques”[2] to enhance it in still photography, Myrdal later persuaded Christopher Tucker, the makeup artist for the film The Elephant Man, to create a prosthetic: “It was very light, a very delicate foam latex sleeve that fit on over the cock, carefully glued down underneath by the pubes and then made up.”[3]

Silver's debut film was the low-budget Sex Freaks, released in 1979, in which he co-starred with Vicki Scott. In 1982, he appeared with the actress Seka in Beauty and the Beast, shot in America.[4] His name is a reference to the fictional Treasure Island character Long John Silver.

Silver reached a new audience in the wake of allegations of sexual harassment during the Clarence Thomas confirmation hearings in the U.S. Senate in 1991, as Anita Hill alleged that Thomas had mentioned to her that he was a viewer of Long Dong Silver's films.[5][6][7][8][9]
