Bryant Ross is the host of Vancouver Story Slam, Canada’s longest-running monthly storytelling event. Bryant’s storytelling talent reaches deep into the ancient tradition of oral history, grabs onto the gut-twisting truths and hard realities of human existence, and pulls up handfuls of simplesweet joy, unspeakable sorrow, and bright explosions of humorous revelations.

His hypnotizing, dynamic
performance style leaves audience members aching with laughter, choking back quiet tears of heartbreak, and pondering the blood and beauty of the human condition.

Bryant was the Vancouver Story Slam champion in both 2009 and 2014, and has featured at numerous literary events including the Under the Volcano Festival of Art and Social Change, the Vancouver International Storytelling Festival, and the Main Street Car Free Day.

He is a father, an artist, a thirty-five-year veteran of the Township of Langley Fire Department, and a damn fine baker of pies.
