Born Avery Timmins Fane Klenman, professionally know as Avery Fane, was raised with entertainment as a backdrop to his youth, in Montreal, New York, and Los Angeles. Entertainment, however was never at all a serious interest. Although, as explained in a 2002 Interview, it's always been a passion. It's said that the thought of being a "fizzled out child star" didn't appeal to him, despite a few offers which he politely refused in his early years. After a few bouts with life threatening illnesses, which brought him right to the very edge, Avery was certain he wanted to affect positive change the world over, as an actor; and not waste a second more. In his teens, whilst learning to walk again, Avery found a new way to smile, too: along with the entire world. Avery was studious in both theatre and film studies for much of his youth, and was producing local level television in high-school, as well as a radio career that started with LA Industrial Hard Rock band ORGY's label D1 Music of America, and spread to a great freelance career, especially with Avery's life in Japan (1998-1999 and 2001-2008), allowing for many related television and radio productions to come to be. Avery attended both high school in Canada as well as in Chiba, Japan. University was also a two paved approach, starting at the University of Victoria, in British Columbia Canada in the faculty of Pacific Asian Studies, and finishing University at Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University in 2004, after being headhunted, with a BFA in Asia Pacific Sociology and a minor in International media production and Relations. Avery's career didn't really pick up, however, until 2005, after university in Japan and after a few years "in a suit" working with the Japanese government, he decided to return to his passion. Avery's IMDB shows but a sliver (due to international hassle with acquiring credits) of the some 100+ productions he was a part of between 2004 and 2009. Despite full time careers in tourism, education, and international relations, Avery continued to work in TV, film, and on the radio almost continually since his teens, producing his own programming whilst working for the big networks as well. Avery relocated back to North America in 2008 after a decade in Japan, and has been bouncing between Vancouver and LA ever since- with his endeavors taking him as far as Germany, Korea, and even India! Avery's humorous 2008 "Canadian car chase" Midas commercial, which was even featured by Ellen DeGeneres as her pick for the "funniest commercial" continues to be aired across the country to this day, with over five million plays on YouTube as well! Avery continues to study the eternally evolving craft of acting with some of the best minds in the business, acting locally and internationally. Recently he's resumed his foray into independent film as well, with his independent film house Bridgevale Pictures; screening and receiving accolades internationally. Considering Avery started out as a news anchor in Japan with aspirations to be a professional broadcaster, it's ironic that Avery's 2011 feature slated for 2014 release internationally, entitled "The Onsen", places him in the role of an antagonistic author much alike his earlier career years- only with a dark twist. Since the wrap of The Onsen, Avery's continued to act on TV and Film, as well as work on independent productions, and in 2011 got his feet wet in Europe for the first time with TV, Radio, and the rock stage touring with his band.
