Billi Bruno, age nine, has played the irrepressible Gracie in According to Jim for more than half of her life.
When Billi was barely in her “mid-threes,” she would tag along with her two older sisters when they auditioned for acting roles. After memorizing her sister's lines during their auditions, she pleaded with her parents to let her audition on her own. After only her first audition, her tenacity and charm paid off with her role on According Jim.
Billi lives in Los Angeles with her family. Not only is she on the set five days a week, but she also takes gymnastics, and loves to swim and ride her horse. Billi has a big imagination which lends itself to writing her own stories. She also has a gift for drawing.
Billi appeared in country star Brad Paisley's music video, “Celebrity,” as well as numerous national commercials. When Billi is not working on her series she enjoys working in children's theater. When asked what she wants to be when she grows up, her response is, “I'm going to be on According to Jim forever.”
