Unlike some performers who happen into the adult industry by chance, Logan Long "always knew that this is a good profession for me. I've owned two businesses in the past, and I just really didn't feel like doing that any more. Just wanted something in my normal everyday life, which is sex. And I felt like getting paid for it while I do it."

Long dropped out of high school at 16 ("I took a high-school sufficiency test, got my diploma, I was like, 'I'm outta here.'"), which was when he decided to become an adult performer. He doesn't remember much about the video that caught his attention, but "she had a big, hairy bush. It was one of my father's VHS tapes."

Long is setting his sights high: he wants to win Male Performer of the Year. "I'm striving for that. Staying hard throughout the scene, having a good pop, acting well. In the beginning I was told I was a little monotone, so I'm striving to be more vocal, more out there. When the camera comes out, I tend to be a little shy, but I can still perform."
