Gabor started his pornographic career late in life appearing in Every Woman Has a Fantasy in 1983 at the age of 38.  Gabor quickly became a popular male performer appearing with some of the hottest female stars of the 80’s and even directed a movie late in his career.  He is known for his trademark leading man good looks, and for his resemblance to Sean Connery and Burt Reynolds. He even spoofed the popular mainstream actors in some of his pornographic roles over the years.

Although most of Gabor’s success came in the 80’s he continued to perform until 2001 when he retired and moved from Los Angeles back to Norway.

Gabor was found dead in June 27, 2008 while vacationing in Thailand.  A local doctor determined that his death was related to heart problems.  He had suffered from a heart aliment over the last few years according to sources.  Gabor was 63 years old.  He is survived by his 5 children from 3 different marriages.
