Over the course of his 35-year career in show business, David Pevsner has done it all. He's acted on Broadway, off-Broadway, in independent films and on numerous TV network shows including Grey's Anatomy, Modern Family and Criminal Minds. As he continues his career in entertainment, Pevsner has also dedicated himself to exploring his deepest sexual fantasies. In his late 30s he became a mature male escort and over the last several years has attracted a large international fan base through his blog of erotic photographs celebrating nudity and sexuality. Damn Shame is David Pevsner's incredible story and is a passionate and poignant look at one man's journey from a thin, shy boy ashamed of his body and sexuality to a defiant, fearless everyman exploring his erotic desires, everything from leather and S&M to nude/erotic/hardcore modelling. Along the way, he fights back against society's demonization of gay sex, body shaming and ageism while pursuing his own very personal definition of success and seeking love, validation and self-esteem. Damn Shame gives a loud and powerful voice to a generation of mature men who have been conditioned to believe from society (and especially younger members of the gay community) that they are sexually irrelevant, old and undesirable. Pevsner's life story goes in directions that many couldn't imagine, but the lessons learned through his experiences will resonate with readers of every age."-- $c Provided by publisher. 530 $a Issued also in electronic format. 600 10 $a Pevsner, David. 650 0 $a Gay men $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Actors $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Models (Persons) $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Gay men $x Identity. 650 0 $a Gay erotic photography. 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20220112010033.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=4958D318737511EC9E8CBBD120ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
