Biography
Rush grew up in the small town of Shirleysburg, Pennsylvania. He graduated from Pennsylvania State University with a Bachelor's degree in Exercise Physiology. Following graduation, Rush worked in the cruise industry as a personal trainer, but soon moved to Columbus, Ohio, to work as a personal trainer. As a porn star, Rush is under a lifetime exclusive contract with Falcon Studios.[2] He describes himself as versatile, engaging in both top and bottom roles. While primarily a top in his porn film roles, he bottomed on screen for the first time with then boyfriend Rob Romoni in the video Taking Flight, Part 2. In a Falcon TV appearance with his boyfriend, fellow porn star Ethan Kage, he performed both as top and bottom. Rush is in a long-term relationship with Ethan Kage, who has retired from the porn industry. The couple live in the Fort Lauderdale, Florida, area. Rush previously dated another porn actor, Tyler Riggz.
Acting career
Unusually for a porn star, Rush has made several forays into legitimate acting while continuing to make porn films. Most notably, he has appeared in the TV detective film Third Man Out, starring Chad Allen, and in the motion picture Another Gay Movie. From 2002 to 2005, he acted in a traveling stage production of Making Porn, directed by fellow porn star Blue Blake. He also appeared in stage productions of the plays 10 Naked Men and Psycho Beach Party.
