Don Fernando (born April 12, 1948) is an American director and actor of pornographic films. He started in the pornography business in 1977 and performed for 39 consecutive years; the longest tenure for any male pornographic film actor in the world, until his retirement in 2016 at which time, he started a successful wedding video/documentary business based in Honolulu. Because of his high libido and sexual endurance during his performances in adult film and video productions on 3 continents, he was known in the United States and Europe as "Mr. Reliable", and in Japan as "Superman of Video Sex". As a director, he specialized in performing with Asian females, and thus earned the moniker "Asianman". He won the Best Supporting Actor Award twice (1995[citation needed] and in 2005) during the Festival de Cine Erotica-Barcelona[1] Fernando was inducted into the X-Rated Critics Organization Hall of Fame in 1997.[2] In 1998, he started directing and still continued acting. In 1999, he opened his personal website named Don Fernando's Asian X Club, featuring Asian and Eurasian females, many of which performed exclusively in front of his cameras. He was inducted into the AVN Hall of Fame during the 2004 AVN Awards.[3]
