| notes |
While at college as a chemistry student in Ohio, a friend suggested he become a Colt model not expecting that it would be nude. He parlayed his earnings into a decent sized fortune.
His first hard core film, he accepted because it paid well and he was broke. It was for a private collector and has never been released. Jim Cassidy was also in it.
He is married. He bought the original Gold's Gym in Venice Beach in 1972 and sold it in 1979 when it moved to Santa Monica and eventually became the world famous franchise that it is today. He turned the original building into his home. He also owned a sound stage where he produced films. In 1974 he claimed that ¼ of the Hollywood TV commercials were filmed there. Ironically, the studio was used to film Loadstar and also to tape the religious broadcasts of some local evangelists. Dakota was the producer there of an R-rated film titled So Long, Blue Boy, released in 1973. It was a big disappointment because Dakota didn't keep artistic control and the result was panned by a gay critic as homophobic, perhaps unjustly. It may have been re-edited and re-released.
Asked if he regretted his early skin career, he answered that while it may prevent him from doing some things now, if he hadn't he wouldn't have had the career he had.
Author & co-author of a number of books such as The Gold's Gym Book of Bodybuilding, Gold's Gym Weight Training Book, The Athlete's Body, etc. |
