Frank Towers is a well-built porn stud who has been hard at it for the better part of a decade in the hardcore scene. Sometimes known as Frank Towers, Frank was one of the better looking hunks of his era, a pretty boy whose good looks won him female fans on both sides of the camera. His looks may have landed him his first jobs, but it was his always reliable tool that kept producers coming back for more.

Frank Towers was born on September 25, 1969. It was an encounter with Arnold Schwartzenegger in 1986 that changed his life. At the time, Frank was a spindly 150-pound weakling. Inspired by Arnie, Frank embarked on a body-building regimen that had his 6'4" frame filled out to 240 beefcake pounds within a few years. His well-honed physique served Frank well once he decided to take the porn plunge in 1993.

Frank's first forays into hardcore were in a string of 'Amateur Orgy' tapes for Gourmet. By 1994, he had moved into the low-end of the professional ranks, appearing in lots of gang bang flicks with titles like 'Gang Bang Bitches 1.' His obvious good looks soon got him noticed by big-name producers, and by the end of '94 he was working with some of the hottest starlets in the business.

For example, 1994's 'Dinner Party' found Frank in a torrid threesome with Jenna Jameson and Diva that ranked as the flick's high point. Frank's blistering work with Kaylan Nicole in 'Upbeat Love 2' also sizzled, as did his feverish fling with buxom Rachel Love in 'Backdoor Bradys.'

The mid-90s were Frank's busiest, as he appeared in a new video or two every week. He never lost his passion for his work, though, as any one of his flicks will show. His tireless performance skills and friendly personality shone through in each new outing, and his enthusiasm always carried the day.

Frank has eased off on the throttle a bit lately, but he continues to appear in sexvids now and again. Among his best recent outing is 'All Natural 8,' where he joins Sharon Wild and Jamie Lynn in a pair of pulse-pounding plunges. Frank Towers is one of those b-level porn studs who never quite get their due, but who are the backbone -- so to speak -- of the entire industry.
