Charles aka Chuck with classic model Manny, who's holding up well! (Image by Matthew Rettenmund) I made it out to a talk by my old friend Charles Hovland at Bureau of General Services at the LGBT Community Center, where he dished some serious dirt about being a photographer of male nudes during the heyday of porn mags like Honcho, Torso and Mandate.
His book — Hunks Twinks Thugs — is very much like his talk was, filled with details. Check out the book by writing Charles at crhovland@aol.com (and note that X-rated stuff is in the hardcover).
