Bruce was born in North Vancouver but then moved to Prince Rupert. When
he was in elementary school, his family moved to Vernon, British Columbia in the
Okanagan Valley, where he lived until going to the University of
British Columbia. He met Heather when they were in Junior High School
together, but didn't start a romance until he was in University. They
were married in 1987 and have been living in Vancouver ever since.
Bruce worked at the Vancouver Library for many years until his acting work was able to support him. He enjoys good food and good wine, and is an avid reader.
