Here is the biography of George Harrison Marks:
George Harrison Marks was a British glamour photographer active in the sex industry from the mid-1950s until his death in the late 1990s. As a photographer, he founded the Kamera group of magazines with his then-supposed wife, model and actress Pamela Green, although they were never actually married.
Marks began making short films for the 8mm market in 1958, featuring his models undressing and posing topless, popularly known as "glamour home movies." One of his most popular films was "The Window Dresser" (1961),starring Pamela Green as a cat burglar who hides from the law by posing as a lingerie shop dummy.
Marks continued to make 8mm glamour films throughout the 1960s, often incorporating "little stories" and bit parts for himself and his comedy partner Stuart Samuels. Some notable films from this period include "Witches Brew" (1960),"Model Entry" (1965),and "Perchance to Scream" (1967).
In the early 1970s, Marks' career was marked by a series of setbacks, including bankruptcy, an obscenity trial, and a decline in his drinking habits. During this period, he continued to make short films for the 8mm market and released them through his Maximus films company.
Marks' films often featured soft core sex, but he also began to experiment with more explicit material. He made films for a British hardcore pornographer known only as "Charlie Brown" and began making hardcore versions of his own Maximus short films, which were released overseas on the Color Climax and Tabu labels.
Some notable hardcore films from this period include "Dolly Mixture" (1973),"Autograph Hunter", "Tea and Crumpet", and "Busty Baller" (1979). Marks also made films on the subject of spanking, including "Rawhide" and "Late for School".
In the late 1970s, Marks left the Janus stable to set up his own magazine, Kane, which focused on corporal punishment. He made around 80 videos on this subject, including "The Prefect's Lesion" (1981),"Five of the Best" (1988),and "Stinging Stewardesses" (1996).
Marks died of bone cancer on June 27, 1997.
