Bruce Dean (professional recreationalist) 

From a gonzo path less travelled, Bruce Dean draws from his bizarre experiences and his social conscience of convenience when creating his writing and photos. 

A photojournalist and raconteur armed with tales from his travels. From backhands to bars, from University to Social Work - caring for societies discarded children while conquering the seas, trees and slopes of North America. Rebounding from poverty and disability - while desperately clinging to parenting.

Through it all, Bruce Dean has been producing his award winning humor, photography and writing.

Bruce Dean has a diploma in Photojournalism from Western Academy of Photography and his work has graced a variety of publications. 

Bruce is studying toward a double major in writing and visual arts at the University of Victoria.
