Culture, Offbeat: Jack Wrangler, 1946-2009: A contradiction of a human being

  • Before turning to gay porn, he started his career in a religiously-themed NBC TV series in the 1950s. source
  • Wrangler starred in some landmark 1970s porn movies. We’ll trust you to Wikipedia them yourselves, kids. source
  • Despite being openly gay, he married a woman named Margaret Whiting – a big-band-era pop singer – in 1995. source
  • Whiting is 22 years Wrangler’s senior – and he admitted being openly gay as recently as last year. That’s crazy. source
  • His honest, open sexuality made him a gay icon. Wrangler died Tuesday at 62. Peace, bro. source
