Sam Bob is a Vancouver based actor who has performed in TV, film, radio,and theatre. His family is from the Nanoose Indian reservation on Vancouver Island. His mother is from Lyackson First Nation and his father is from Snaw-Naw-us First Nation. After residential school at Kuper Island he moved to LA and went there for grades 3-10 then moved back to Vancouver. He is a Jessie Richardson GVTA nominee for Best Actor in a theatre production called of Out of the Silence as an abusive father,and also nominated for Best Actor by Edmonton's Dreamspeaker's Film Festival for his performance in The Red Paper as a Native King Louie XIVth. Sam has performed across Canada on stage from coast to coast. He worked with the great Anthony Hopkins in a film called Go With Me shot in Enderby BC, a true honor to work with a true legend.Sam's traditional name is Tulkweemult. Highlights include doing a children's show Wahkeja as a puppeteer as Terry the Turtle (think like a Native Elmo voice) which he had to choose between the kids show and a play that was headed to the Edinburgh Fringe in Scotland..he did Wahkeja. Another highlight were two fight scenes one jailhouse fight scene in Touching Evil which was fun but dangerous as Sam toughed out an errant elbow to his nose (Don't cut!""Keep rolling!") Also a fight with Raul Trujillo in Destiny Ridge which was a 12 sequence knife fight which was as fun to shoot as grueling to complete. Lastly Sam enjoyed morphing once into a panther in So Wierd and also morphed once into a sexy woman in Health Nutz (thank heavens they cut before the kiss..but the red dress was to die for jus sayin') Hide
