Bruce LaBruce is a Toronto, Canada based film-maker, writer, and photographer. He co-edited the queer punk zine J.D.s in the mid-eighties with G.B.

LaBruce went on to be a photographer and columnist for magazines like Honcho, Inches, Eye Magazine, Exclaim, and Index, to which he was recently named a contributing editor. LaBruce has also contributed to the National Post, UK Guardian, Vice, Dutch, Butt, Strut, Dazed and Confused, Loyal, Doingbird, The Breeder, Bon, and K48.
