Bruce Blitz was born and raised in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and grew up doodling cartoons in the margins of his notebook as well as playing piano and organ in rock bands all around the Philly area.  He then turned professional with both these skills and worked in a wide variety of artistic fields.

Bruce has taught MILLIONS of people how to draw! He has written and hosted 104 episodes of his Television series, “Cartooning with Blitz” and was rewarded with four Emmy-nominations. He has created numerous art instruction books, videos & DVDs as well as his unique How-to-Draw kits that sold over a million copies! His TV series and products have been translated and are seen many different countries such as: Mexico, Columbia, Israel, Serbia, Japan, England, Spain and the Mideast.

Bruce taught cartooning on the Joan Rivers Show, appeared on the QVC Shopping Network, selling out his products 43 times and created & hosted 95 shows for Comcast OnDemand’s popular kid show, “Activity TV”.

Bruce has recently appeared in 6 episodes of the NEW 2016 version of the Popular Hit Variety Show for Kids & Adults, with live studio audience WONDERAMA which is seen on the CW Network.

Bruce says: “Art is a journey that never ends. I’ve found that people are fascinated by seeing a blank piece of paper turn into a finished cartoon. On my TV series and with my products, I try to do just that…take simple shapes and add some detail. It all adds up to the fact that, art is a terrific way to express yourself and once you see that you too can draw… it also becomes a great way to build self esteem”!
