Bobby is an English born Irish actor on the autism spectrum. After being a pro wrestler from 2011-201, he eventually transitioned into the theatre & camera world. In addition to acting, he’s a writer and YouTuber, specializing in video essays that examine classic films and values they translate to the modern day.
