Graver unfortunately consistently denied ever being "McCallum", claiming he never used a pseudonym on his films, but every performer I've spoken to who worked with McCallum has confirmed his identity as Gary Graver. McCallum suffered from the "Traci Lords syndrome", I think. Or in other words, because he worked with the underage Traci Lords, that may have affected why he didn't admit to having done adult films. In any case, though he was ashamed of his porno past and apparently took his "secret" to the grave (even a couple weeks ago, as he was dying, he denied being McCallum), he should be remembered by adult film fans for his incredible work: 3AM, V THE HOT ONE, THE ECSTASY GIRLS, COED FEVER, AMANDA BY NIGHT, GARAGE GIRLS, CENTERSPREAD GIRLS, SOCIETY AFFAIRS, PRIVATE TEACHER, SUZIE SUPERSTAR, TRINITY BROWN, EROTIC CITY, TOWER OF POWER, CRAZY WITH THE HEAT, DOLL FACE, PEEPING TOM.

| RichB Member 65 Posts 4/05 | Posted - Nov 22 2006 : 12:28PM Mr. Graver definitely did his time and was a legend in both adult and mainstream worlds. A couple years ago on a shoot where we were using his gear/truck I gladly had the chance to meet him when he dropped off a repair part. Suffice it to say, I checked his trunk before he left. His car trunk that is.... Crazy With Heat and Suzie Superstar are two of my favorite 80's porn flicks. Gary Graver did it all and will be remembered!!!
