Richard Crouse figures he's the luckiest person he knows, being among those few that can say that he is living out his childhood dream. His first job, at 16, was a nighttime DJ at CKBW radio in his native Nova Scotia, the youngest DJ in the Maritimes. His position was 'jr. announcer', a job that actor Donald Sutherland had held at the same radio station many years before.In 1980 Richard moved to Toronto looking for work as a writer. At first he wrote for free for anybody who would publish him, but eventually worked his way up to writing for magazines and newspapers. His work has been featured in The Globe and Mail, The National Post, as well as several literary and music magazines.He wrote his first book when he was in his teens; a history of his favorite band The Rolling Stones. Since then Richard has written four more books, all reviewed positively by the critics, including Rock & Roll Toronto and Who Wrote the Book of Love (Doubleday). He has also written a Celine Dion biography (Ballantine, New York), followed by Big Bang, Baby (a rock trivia encyclopedia for Dundurn). His fifth book, The 100 Best Movies You've Never Seen was published by ECW Press in 2003.Richard now finds himself in front of the camera, as co-host of the Galaxi Award winning television show Reel to Real, Canada's longest running movie review program, now in its twelfth season on Rogers Television. Each week he examines the latest movies and interviews the hottest stars from Hollywood and the rest of the world. Richard joined the show at the end of its 6th season and has since made regular trips to the Cannes Film Festival, provided in-depth coverage of the Toronto Film Festival and done hundreds of interviews. Although he has been living out his childhood dream, he's not content to idly sit back and enjoy the ride. Always looking forward to the next challenge, Richard has the drive to accomplish whatever he sets out to do. When asked what he'd like to find at the end of the rainbow, Richard simply replies with a smile, "Another rainbow." Based on his track record, he'll have no trouble finding it.
