Eli Cross is a pornographic and mainstream movie director, producer, and actor. He was inducted into the AVN Hall of Fame in 2015.
Under the name of Mark Logan, Cross was managing editor of AVN. Unlike many adult industry professionals, Cross does not keep his birth name a secret. He has won awards, and keeps a blog, under his own name. His mainstream work is performed under his birth name of Bryn Pryor.
He is best known for his films The Visitor (2003) from Elegant Angel, Epiphany (2004) from VCA Xplicit, Corruption (2006), Upload (2007), and Icon (2008) from SexZ Pictures, The 8th Day, which Cross produced for Adam & Eve Pictures, and Star Wars XXX: A Porn Parody, which Cross wrote (as Mark Logan) and produced for Vivid Entertainment and Axel Braun Productions (2012).
Cross' biggest films have received significant acclaim in the adult industry. Corruption won 7 AVN Awards including Best Video, with Cross receiving Best Director - Video.Upload received 22 AVN Awards nominations, including a Best Director - Video nomination for Cross, and another win for Best Video. Both movies also received similar nominations and awards from XRCO,XBiz, Adam Film World Guide, and Nightmoves magazine.
Icon received the AVN Award for Best High-End All-Sex Video in 2009, with Cross winning Best Director - All-Sex. In 2010, the Cross-produced The 8th Day won 7 AVN Awards including Best Video.
In 2007, following the success of Corruption, Cross became Head of Production for SexZ Pictures. However, a dispute between Cross and SexZ over his work on The 8th Day created stress between Cross and Bo Kenney, the owner of SexZ. Press releases were issued stating that the two parties had resolved their differences, but in 2009, as Cross was in pre-production on a film called Daughter of the Wolf, SexZ abruptly released him from his contract. SexZ Pictures stopped producing videos soon after.
