ReplyDeleteRyan was always one of my favorite fantasy models for Colt. Part of it was that very little of his pictorial work was done in color. This was intentional, as it gave the photographs a dreamy, almost 1950's Tom of Finland overlay with clever use of lighting and lens filters. Unfortunately, Ryan's story was - to use a common term - "brief and fleeting."
ReplyDeleteHe did four or five pictorials for Colt in 1985/1986 and only starred in 1 250' reel in 1987 that appeared as part of the iconic Buckshot "Minute Men" series; actually, their first ("Minute Men #1). His vignette was called "Reign of Fire" and featured Ryan as a fireman in a very hot and steamy solo session that also produced some very iconic stills. There were a total of three vignettes on that first Minute Men presentation; the other two vignettes starred Link Benedict and Peter Stride, respectively.
Ryan's vignette was reproduced on the Minute Men #14, "Men in Uniform." in 1996 which renewed interest in him, but by that point he had moved on - literally - as he seemingly never did another movie or pictorial spread.
In the mid-2000's, a Colt Productions alumni reunion was held and Ryan attended. During an interview, he was asked about the brief span of his career and why he didn't go on to do more modeling or movie roles. His response? "Once you've worked for Colt, what could possibly top that?" I guess he was serious, because I've never found much more out about him, either pre- or post- Colt modeling.
Thanks for the memories Rick!
