Publicist - Bruce Pollack




STAGES with Peter Eyers show

Summary: With over four decades, promoting and guiding major projects across Australia, Bruce Pollack is a veteran of the Entertainment Industry. He is one of our top Publicists and has been present at the launch of countless musicals, handled some of the world's biggest stars and sweet-talked the Media whilst juggling behind-the-scenes dramas and serving his clients effectively - getting the word out and celebrating the entertainment. In 1956, a chance encounter with the legendary actor Hayes Gordon, allowed the eight-year old Bruce an opportunity to stand in the wings of The Princess Theatre, Melbourne, during a Saturday matinee of KISMET. It was then that his fate was sealed and he then became determined that the theatre was where he was meant to be. In 2016 Bruce was appointed a Member in the General Division of the Order of Australia for significant service to the community in the areas of social welfare and public health. He has been acclaimed by the mainstream media and the gay and lesbian community as having been at the forefront of representing the gay and lesbian community through the national media since the early eighties. 'Bruce Pollack Publicity' was established in late 1982. From his many years of involvement in Arts administration and entertainment marketing, he gained all the necessary skills and expertise to establish a successful Public Relations Company that specialised in Media Relations for the Entertainment Industry. Over the next twenty years 'Bruce Pollack Publicity' grew to be one of the largest publicity organisations in Australia. In 2002 he created Pollack Consulting and now works as a Sole Consultant providing strategic media advice to a range of clients. Bruce Pollack is very much a Guru. A Master of Publicity. He comes equipped with a thousand anecdotes and an enthusiasm that never wanes.
