Bruce Rogoff è nato a Manhattan il 21 dicembre 1957 e oggi vive a Tenafly una cittadina del New Jersey circa 30 Km a Nord della mela.
Sposato, Bruce ha iniziato a giocare a bridge con i suoi genitori e poi alle Scuole Superiori dove però attività sportive come il calcio ed il tennis gli lasciavano poco spazio per il bridge.
Lasciato il college ha fatto l'istruttore di tennis a Hilton Head nel South Carolina per un certo periodo, poi tornato a New York, dopo un corso come attuario in un assicurazione è tornato al bridge.
Oggi fa il programmatore di computer e l'option trader, ma ciò non gli ha impedito di vincere 4 edizioni della NY Reisinger Knockout con 4 compagni diversi.
Born in Manhattan in 1957, Bruce is married and presently resides in
Tenafly, NJ.
He witnessed social bridge both at home with his parents and then with high school buddies who addictively played all night, ate breakfast, played afternoon softball and eagerly awaited the start of the nightly bridge sessions.
However, at that time Bruce's priorities seemed to lie elsewhere. His college tennis and soccer activities (receiving double scholarships) precluded his succumbing to bridge. In fact, after two years, he quit college and sought greener pastures teaching tennis at Hilton Head, SC.
It was not until he returned to New York and became an actuarial trainee at NY Life that he returned to the game.
His professional career encompassed computer programming/consulting and options trading and hedge fund managing. Bruce takes great pride in having won four New York Reisinger Knockouts (with different partners and different teams) and he credits bridge with favorably impacting his last two careers as well as earning a coterie of marvelous friends through the years.
