Biography in pipeline for actor Bruce

Scottburgh local, Bruce Gounder, has been making headlines off late through the many acting and movie producing opportunities coming his way in the last few months. Local community newspapers have documented his acting achievements over the years through numerous articles, and while he uses this as a reminder of his humble beginnings and to keep track of his work, these articles have caught the eye of writer Jay Leroux from the mid-South Coast who wishes to write a biography on Bruce and show his achievements and aspirations.

“By reading a simple newspaper article, I was drawn to this actor who I found quite humorous and has a great personality, and I had to find out more about him and meet him,” said Jay. He made it his mission to go out and find Bruce, and once he did, the two clicked and in just a month of knowing each other, Jay explained it’s as if he has known Bruce for years.

In just this short period of a month, Jay has gathered loads of information from Bruce to put together a biography on him and is going to be working on this project for the next couple of months.

“The purpose of this biography is to show people who Bruce really is and what an inspiration he can be for many people, especially from the local communities,” said Jay. “He’s had a normal childhood like any other person, and believe it or not, was a shy person before becoming a star and I want to show all of this in his biography.”

“Bruce eventually sees himself going to Hollywood to grow his acting career, and I see that too, therefore the biography will document his journey to Hollywood.” Bruce, who was grateful to Jay for this opportunity, stated that he is still amazed at how a small town guy like him has made it this far already and is excited to see what his future holds with this new bio in the works.
