Ty Fox
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ty Fox (born Jeffrey Dion Bruton in Falls Church, Virginia) is an American pornographic actor (porn star) who appears in gay and bisexual pornographic movies. He has also performed under the name J. Steele.
Suppressing his sexual feelings while growing up, Bruton finally had a gay sexual encounter with a fellow student while attending Georgia Southern University. During his last six months there, in 1992, he was approached by a modeling scout in a shopping mall. Dealing with heavy credit card debt, Bruton began a career first as a fitness and calendar model and then as a porn star under the name Ty Fox.
He quickly developed a huge fan following, largely due to his powerful, muscular build and enthusiastic screen performances. Among his videos were Down On It, Hot Day In L.A., Manhattan Skyline (with Christian Fox), and Fox's Lair (with Steve Fox and Ryan Fox). Ty Fox looked upon his videos not only as a job but also as a way to explore a part of his sexuality he had denied for years. He continued to make videos not only after getting married but also after securing a job as a middle school physical education teacher in Ashburn, Virginia.
In 1994, he shared the award for "Best Actor" with Zak Spears at the Adult Erotic Gay Video Awards.
Trouble came in 1996, first when a fellow teacher entered an adult video store and spotted Ty/Jeff's face on a video box, and reported his moonlighting activities to school authorities. What happened next depends on which version is consulted. Either his wife learned of his gay video performances after a friend showed her his picture in an ad for the video Hot Day in LA and she ordered and watched the video and saw her husband having sex with other men, or she saw the same video box in the same store, or she knew all along about his gay video career and caught him in bed with another woman. Whatever the situation leading up to the event might have been, Melanie Bruton filed for divorce. Shortly afterward, with the Loudoun County school board beginning procedures to fire him, Bruton resigned from his teaching job and turned in his license.
For five months he lived in seclusion with his sister, who urged him to return to porn. In 1997, Fox Tale appeared, wrapping Ty Fox's sex scenes around a storyline which parodied his recent outing. He also began making appearances at strip clubs in Washington, DC and other cities, and began living in the DC area to be close to his one-year old son, to whom he had been given visitation rights. In 2001, he came out of retirement again to perform in a film for Jet Set Studios as J. Steele. At last report he still expressed hopes of returning to the teaching profession.
The photo appearing here shows a computer-generated Washington Monument, not visible in reality from the actual location of this photograph taken at the famed Tutorsky Mansion, 1720 16th Street NW at Riggs Place in the Dupont Circle neighborhood. The Tutorsky Mansion, under a previous owner, was the location for one of Ty's gay porn films.
