Richard Pacheco (born Howard Marc Gordon; May 5, 1948) is an American former pornographic film and video actor, writer and director who retired from the X-rated business in the mid-1980s. He appeared in more than 100 x-rated films and videos. He has won multiple adult film awards for Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, and Best Director. He was Playgirl [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Playgirl] magazine's Man of the Year in 1979 as Howie Gordon. In 1978, he was offered his first professional erotic film role in The Candy Stripers [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candy_Stripers_(1978_film)] (released 1978) for $200 per day. Thus began his pornographic career. He appeared in that first film under the name "McKinley Howard", and used many aliases until Anthony Spinelli [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthony_Spinelli]'s Talk Dirty to Me [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk_Dirty_to_Me_(film)] (1980), in which he co-starred as "Richard Pacheco". When that movie became a groundbreaking success, he kept the pseudonym for the box office value it began to accrue. In November 1984, Pacheco stopped appearing in porn movies without condoms [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condom] in reaction to his wife's concerns about the growing AIDS [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AIDS] epidemic. This cost him most of his adult acting job offers, and became an effective forced retirement from pornographic acting. He worked in non-sex roles, and as an assistant director to John Leslie [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Leslie_(porn_actor)]until 1986. He only directed one film himself, 1987's Careful, He May Be Watching [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Careful,_He_May_Be_Watching&action=edit&redlink=1], starring Seka [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seka_(actress)], but that one won the Best Film award and won him the Best Director award from AVN Awards 1988 [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AVN_Awards_1988].
