Brian Bloom

Actor Brian Bloom at the 1995 Casino premiere

Brian Keith Bloom is an American actor, born on June 30, 1970 in Long Island, New York. He is the brother of actor Scott Bloom and a long-time childhood friend of actress Alyssa Milano.

Brian began an early interest in acting, highlighted in several commercials as a child, but made his big break in the Sergio Leone film Once Upon A Time In America. From there he was offered the role of Dusty Donovan in the hit soap opera As the World Turns, which he played for several years. During that run, Brian became the youngest winner of a Daytime Emmy Award in the category of Outstanding Young Leading Man during the 12th Daytime Emmy Awards show for his performance on the series. Despite his success, he soon tired of the scheduling involved in that field and eventually left the series to star is several tv movies. This opened his appeal to later roles, which would include spots in Melrose Place, , Law & Order: Special Victims Unit and HBO's Oz as the character Ronald Barlog.

Bloom is currently expanding his resume to include voice work on both animated series and video games. Brian's hobbies include: writing, composing, recording, cooking, and designing and building furniture. Bloom also owns and runs Animal World Network, which highlights his love of animals.
