- Hailing from Melbourne, Australia, Ivan Bradara began acting at fourteen after a successful stint as a junior tennis player. He has trained at some of the most prestigious acting schools in Australia and Los Angeles, including the Stella Adler Studio Of Acting. From acting stints in popular Australian television shows such as 'Neighbours' to making his first major television debut in the outstanding BAFTA, Emmy nominated, AACTA and Logie award-winning mini-series - 'The Slap'.

These short films include: 'Shiny Thing' where he starred opposite Tom Ballard, 'Look My Way', 'Shoplifting' and most recently 'The Onlookers'.

Ivan has produced several award-winning films under his production company 'Nebula', which he launched with writer/director Martin Sharpe. Their most recent venture as a producer/director combo has culminated in 'Serving Joy', a hugely ambitious, dialogue rich ensemble piece.
