Few porn actors have, or most likely ever will have, a resume as extensive as North's. He is still going strong (as of 2011), a holdover-but not a 'relic'-from the 'good old days' in an era of straight-to-video, low-budget quickies with no acting, little if any plot, tattooed / strutting / preening 'actors' and bored, disinterested or barely conscious 'actresses'. His career began in the days when porn movies were take-offs of legit films they had plots, dialogue, (relatively) hefty budgets and were meant to be seen in theaters. For over 20 years Canadian-born Peter North has been one of the most reliable performers in porn, with youthful good looks and a body sculpted almost to perfection from long hours spent in the gym.
