Today, we have BRUCE CRYER! Get to know more about him:
Bruce has been called a renaissance man. At age 15 he sang in the choir for Duke Ellington and by 19 was playing The Boy in the world’s longest running musical, The Fantasticks, in a run lasting more than 800 performances. Trained at the Oberlin Conservatory of Music, he has performed in Shakespeare in the Park, television commercials and films, ran a small art business in New York City, and was a founding member of ODC, San Francisco’s top rated dance company.
He left his musical theater career to join the vibrant California business community and founded and/or managed several innovative businesses in the health care arena. He was a founding director of the acclaimed HeartMath Institute and CEO of HeartMath LLC for 11 years, during which time his clients included Stanford University, Kaiser Permanente, Mayo Clinic, The World Bank, Unilever, Shell, the NHS, Cathay Pacific Airways, Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group, NASA, and Yosemite National Park.
He has taught global executives at Stanford Business School, Columbia University Executive Program, Haas Business School at University of California Berkeley, and Nanyang Polytechnic University in Singapore. After fully recovering from a two-year health ordeal, he began to sing and dance again through a project he developed called What Makes Your Heart Sing. In 2017 he recorded his first album of original songs, entitled Renaissance Human. Bruce is now 12 years cancer-free, and almost 11 years living youthfully with titanium hips.
His years in both the business and performing arts worlds led him to develop a body of work on Awakening Creativity which is now being taught at Stanford University, University of Delaware, the New York Open Center, 1440 Multiversity in Silicon Valley, and elsewhere. In 2018 he returned to NYC and rejoined the arts scene. He has performed at the Norwood Club, Pangea, Don’t Tell Mama, the United Palace Theater, and St Clements Theater and Church.
His digital photography is available through Instagram. He is also part of the vocal ensemble at St Clements Church and Theater performing a program in New York City called Peaceable Hour. He is currently Executive Director of the Integrative Health Institute at Salem University.
