Brent Corrigan - Early Life

Early Life

Sean Paul Lockhart was born in Lewiston, Idaho, raised in Seattle by his stepfather and moved to San Diego in 2003 to live with his mother.

When I moved originally, my biggest excuse was I had serious interest in film. I wanted to direct and I had a lot of interest in the artistic side of it. I figured if I'm going to do it anywhere, southern California is the fucking place to do it. That was my big lure so I thought I'd come here, do my two years in high school, get residency established then go to UCLA or something of that degree.

He further claims he never met his father. After arriving in San Diego, he says he was abandoned by his mother, forcing him to take care of himself.

At age of sixteen, he says he met and began courting an older man who introduced him to what he referred to as an "unhealthy social scene".

Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:

    I doubt that I would have taken so many leaps in my own writing or been as clear about my feminist and political commitments if I had not been anointed as early as I was. Some major form of recognition seems to have to mark a woman’s career for her to be able to go out on a limb without having her credentials questioned.
    Ruth Behar (b. 1956)

    Had Dr. Johnson written his own life, in conformity with the opinion which he has given, that every man’s life may be best written by himself; had he employed in the preservation of his own history, that clearness of narration and elegance of language in which he has embalmed so many eminent persons, the world would probably have had the most perfect example of biography that was ever exhibited.
    James Boswell (1740–95)
