Adult Filmmaker Michael Kahn Dies

CANOGA PARK, Calif. — Veteran adult filmmaker Michael Kahn died yesterday.

Kahn, a photographer, performer, director and producer, shot numerous titles, many of them POV and BDSM oriented, for his own studio, Michael Kahn’s World.

Other studios, such as Homegrown, Reality Junkies and Debi Diamond Films, picked up films and scenes, along with scores of adult websites, including clip sites.

Kahn, aka Michael Kahn Kryger, also produced and directed mainstream productions.

In late January, Kahn disclosed that he had cancer and didn’t have a lot of time left. For several weeks, he was confined to a hospital but arrived back at home just last week.

Funeral arrangements have been made for Mt. Olive Jewish Cemetery in Commerce, Calif. Check Kahn’s Facebook page for details.

A GoFundMe page also has been created to fund his burial.
