Ty Mitchell, born Douglas Paul Keeler on April 8, 1993, in the United States (sources vary between Texas and Las Vegas, Nevada), is an American-French writer and former prominent gay pornographic actor. Standing at 5'3" with a compact 120-pound frame, black hair, and brown eyes, he launched his adult film career in late 2016. Mitchell quickly gained acclaim as a versatile performer and sought-after bottom, working with top studios like CockyBoys, Helix Studios, Falcon, and BelAmi. He received a Best Newcomer nomination at the 2020 GayVN Awards and won praise for his on-screen chemistry and enthusiasm.
Holding a degree in gender studies, Mitchell transitioned from porn to writing, contributing LGBTQ+ essays to online publications and authoring on his Substack, 'First Openly Gay.' He made mainstream appearances, including a 2019 Saturday Night Live skit with Emma Stone and a 2021 episode of Dropout's Game Changer. In 2023, he retired from adult entertainment, citing a loss of interest in sexual expression to focus on creative pursuits. Now based in Brooklyn, New York, he engages queer communities via social media (@firstopenlygay), sharing candid reflections on fame, identity, and culture. Despite some controversies, like pandemic party criticism, Mitchell remains a vocal figure in queer media.
