==Career==
After graduating from Williams College, Leddy moved to New York City where he started his career at MTV Networks as a writer for VH1. He quickly became a producer, and joined sister channel MTV where he rose to Senior Producer/Writer. After overseeing studio-based shows and VJ segments, Leddy developed and created series for the network. He created the in-depth artist profile series "MTV Rockumentary," produced the pilot and first 7 episodes of "MTV Unplugged," and wrote/directed/produced MTV's "Half Hour Comedy Hour."
After 7 yearw with MTV, Leddy went freelance and formed the production company BLIP Inc. (Bruce Leddy Independent Productions). He continued to work with MTV, producing, writing, and directing one-hour comedy specials financed by the movie studios as promotional vehicles for their films. Several of these starred Mike Myers including the "MTV Wayne's World" and "Wayne's World II Specials," and "Austin Powers' Electric Pussycat Swinger's Club," a show styled after the psychedelic '70's comedy series Laugh In, and Playboy After Dark. He also directed comedy specials for HBO, Showtime, and Comedy Central, as well as a muppet holiday movie for Fox broadcast and Sony Home Video called "CinderElmo," starring Keri Russell, Oliver Platt, Kathy Najimy, and French Stewart.
During production of an MTV special promoting the Mike Myers TriStar Pictures film "So I Married an Axe Murderer," Leddy was offered the chance to direct his first feature film, a coming of age comedy called ''Bad With Numbers''. Shot in Wilmington, North Carolina in 1994, the film starred Jason London, Tia Carrere, Jeffrey Tambor, Alexandra Lee, and Zak Orth. Two months before the film was to have a 1200 screen theatrical release, the distributing studio Savoy Pictures went bankrupt and the film was left in limbo. Eventually it was acquired by Trimark Pictures, and under the title ''My Teacher's Wife'' aired numerous times on the USA Network, and was released on DVD.
