Legendary film director Henri Pachard, whose real name was Ron Sullivan, passed away this morning in California after a long battle with cancer.

A director whose career in adult spanned about 30 years and more than 400 movies including the adult classics Babylon Pink, Devil In Miss Jones 2, Blame It On Ginger, and Taboo American Style to name just a few, Pachard made many good friend in his years in the business and was as respected as they come.

Many in the industry attempted to rally around Henri to help defray medial and living expenses during his illness, and the most notable of these efforts was the controversy-ridden We Are The World XXX adult video project which is still being worked on.

Those close to the director have said that the past three years during this battle with the jaw and throat cancer were tough and painful on not only Pachard and his wife, Deloras. I first met him briefly about 11 years ago during one of the first industry functions I had ever attended, and during our short conversation it was easy to see why so many admired him. And while all are sad to see him go, we know that he is now no longer in pain. Rest in peace Henri.
