Bruce J. Bloom

Playwright

I've been a professional writer all my adult life, founder and creative director of a New York advertising agency. I've been in theatre since I studied theatre at Cornell years ago, acting, directing and designing sets for productions of all kinds. The plays I've written reflect my understanding of what works on the stage. I believe my own insights and experiences as a Jew have provided my richest ideas for plays.
