About Author: Brad Hills

Description
Brad Hills is first and foremost a Shire boy. If you don't know what that means, he pities you. He is an actor and TV host now living in Los Angeles after enduring 6 years in New Zealand and countless losses to the All Blacks. As an actor he has of course worked in just about every industry known to man to make a living...as a restaurant manager, a tennis umpire, a ghost hunter, a celebrity manager and running a National Poker League. He was recently a reindeer named Hollywood, until he got tired of having a brown nose. If you can't find him at a cafe drinking coffee and reading a script, then he will be at home watching Family Guy or Entourage DVD's. If you've never seen either of those shows, he pities you.
