Bruno Verdoni

Bruno Verdoni is an actor from Montreal, Canada, where he was born in an Italian neighborhood. Music first drew his passion: he studied trumpet and the work of Mozart, Beethoven, Al Hirt, and Maynard Ferguson, then played, wrote, rehearsed, and toured with a prog rock band for four years after high school. In college he studied psychology but grew more interested in film classes, learning from filmmakers such as Scorcese, Fellini, and Orson Welles, and he started acting in short films and performing improv. He earned a BA in arts and music composition and toured as a musical performer, recording jingles and making local TV talk show appearances while continuing acting classes, short films, and commercials. He later moved to Toronto to commit to acting, then to Vancouver and Los Angeles, and has appeared in acting projects alongside performers including John Malkovitch and Viola Davis.
