Bruce Gray(1936-2017)
- Actor
Most Canadians would know Bruce Gray as the star of the TV series
Traders (Gemini Award), but most Americans would recognize him as the
Father of the groom in My Big Fat Greek Wedding. Although he began his
acting career on stage in the 60s, he quickly moved into daytime
dramas: contracted to Somerset, High Hopes and the Edge of Night in the
70's. A move to Hollywood in the 80s led to guest star roles on
hundreds of TV shows, recurring on Murder She Wrote, Medium, Tour of
Duty, Falling Skies, How I met your Mother. Bruce gained notoriety in
the gay community as "Shickle The Pickle" on Queer As Folk, then for
football fans by playing a team owner on Playmakers for ESPN.
