Early life and education

Career

Bronstein moved to Canada in 1959 and worked as a copywriter, journalist and comedy writer.[1] He also worked for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation interviewing a series of entertainers, including Oscar Peterson, Dave Brubeck, Bob Dylan, Jack Benny, Dudley Moore,[2] Dizzy Gillespie, Sir Malcolm Sargent, Nina Simone, and Duke Ellington.
