The natural born comedian, Bruce Fine, has won over audiences across the country with his streetwise style and boyish looks. The Massachusetts native headed to LA in the early 90's to "hit the stand-up scene," and quickly became a name to know.

His first appearance on the "Tonight Show with Jay Leno" climaxed with a standing ovation from the audience. He has also appeared on "Comics Unleashed" and was a popular semi-finalist on NBC's "Last Comic Standing 4." He also won the grand prize on "America's Funniest People," further proving comedy was the business for him.

Fine has appeared in numerous acting roles including "Hotel Hell Vacation" with Chevy Chase, and "King of Queens," along with national commercials for Build-A-Bear, Toyota, Miller Lite, and Direct TV.

As a writer/producer, Bruce has worked on successful Wayans Brothers television shows including "Thugaboo," "My Wife and Kids," "The Wayans Brothers," and "Keenen." He also contributed on their hit movies "Little Man," and "Scary Movies" 1 and 2. As a comedy producer on the "Wayne Brady Show" Bruce was nominated for a 2004 Emmy Award.

His first stand up CD, "Actual Size," received a four star review. In June 2010 he released a music video parody "We Still Didn't Start the Fire." It received over 100,000 views over the summer. In the re-written Billy Joel classic, Bruce takes a retrospective account on a variety of things-- Tiger Woods, Charlie Sheen, Jersey Shore, Toyota, and The Vatican. In November 2010, he released another video project, "2010 Year in Review," which accounts all things popular in from the year 2010. In December 2010, Fine released his first stand up DVD special, entitled "The Fire Is Still Burning."
