Biography
DECLAN O'REILLY
I was born in Belfast, Northern Ireland. My family moved to Malawi, central Africa when I was six then emigrated to Canada just before my teens.
I have been all over the world and all over Canada. I love this country. We really are very lucky to live in this stunning land.
I work mostly now in the vibrant arts community of Calgary, Alberta but my career has taken me across Canada coast to coast and as far north as the Yukon. I have over 30
years of professional experience as an actor.
