Master Don Hilton (contact)
Southwest LeatherSIR 2005


Two score and sixteen years ago, Master Hilton began life in Washington, D.C. After serving honorably in the U.S. Army, Master Hilton began His life in leather in Toronto, Canada while assisting the D.C. Eagle to open and grow in the late 60s. Furthering His dedication to life as a Gay Leatherman, He also helped plan and open the Eagle in Exile during the mid 70s. Master Hilton, identified from His earliest days by his trademark black Cowboy hat, was educated by the Army at a school in Swinefurt, Germany where He pursued His first love of accounting and interior design. He also furthered His education by pursuing a business degree in Virginia. Having recovered from an injury that damaged His back and legs, Master Hilton possesses honesty, integrity and authority derived from inner peace and knowledge of self.
After a 13 year relationship, Master Hilton, while not leaving the Leather Community, entered into what would turn out to be a 16 year relationship. Recently separated, Master Hilton has once again taken a step forward to help promote the Leather Community as a whole and specifically the Daddy/boy, Master/slave Community through His ongoing dedication to safe, sane and consensual play while directing those who seek His advice to grow in the safety of others.
Currently, Master Hilton serves as the Treasurer of the Arizona Men of Leather, of which He is a founding member. Master Hilton enjoys the company of two boys and many friends, all of which hold Him in the highest honor.

Southwest Leatherboy 2005


I was born in London, England, and spent several years there as an Air Force brat. I have diverse interests at work and school. I studied Interior Design and Fine Arts at SIU-C, work in advertising and am currently taking pre-requisites for an RN/BSN program. I am a member of the Universal Brotherhood of the Leatherlords and Arizona Power Exchange (APEX).I am also a member and past Secretary of Desert Adventurers.
I was Arizona LeatherSIR 2004. I was a boy when I won the title yet represented my Title and the LeatherSIR image with Truth, Honor and Respect. During my title year I held or participated in fundraisers for Body Positive, Project Hard Hat, Arizona Women of Leather and the Leatherlords Logan¹s Playground Toy Drive. I hosted a lube wrestling fundraiser for the Southwest LeatherSIR & Leatherboy 2004 Travel Fund (an event I won in 2003), but was unable to attend the International LeatherSIR & Leatherboy competition because there was no boy titleholder from my region.
While it is true I have grown into the role of Sir in many respects during the last year, I have retained my boy ¹s heart. When I have been a Sir to a boy, the energy to support my words and actions has come from the part of me that needs to please, that must fulfill my partner¹s fantasy or desires. That energy comes from my heart, the heart of a boy yearning to receive a kind word, pat on the head or embrace from his Sir, Daddy or Master. It is a boy that kneels before you, a boy that desires your touch and a boy than awaits Your command.
