Blair's early life was marked by a move from a pig farm in Ponoka, Alberta to Red Deer, Alberta when he was just four years old. Born as the youngest of three siblings, Blair's family consisted of his mother Deborah, a dedicated nurse, and his father Warren, an entrepreneurial spirit and owner of a telecommunications business. Throughout his school years, Blair excelled in a variety of sports and academic pursuits, showcasing his talents in hockey, volleyball, soccer, English, and sports medicine.
As he entered his first year of college, Blair began to pursue his passion for acting, taking drama classes to supplement his commerce degree. However, after just one semester, he discovered his true calling and made the decision to switch his focus to acting. In the spring of 2004, Blair was accepted into the highly acclaimed professional theatre training program at Studio 58 in Vancouver, British Columbia, where he went on to graduate in 2007.
Blair's acting career took off shortly after, with appearances on popular TV shows such as Bionic Woman, Battlestar Galactica, and The L Word. His first recurring role came in 2007 with the show Aliens in America, where he played the popular quarterback Dan Archer. Since relocating to Toronto, Blair has had the opportunity to work on a range of TV series, including Suits, Beauty and the Beast, Republic of Doyle, and Rookie Blue. He has also collaborated with Black Walk Films on the TV series Dark Rising: Warrior of Worlds and Good Soldier Films on the feature films Night Cries and Country Crush.
In addition to his work in television, Blair has also had the chance to perform in various theatre productions throughout Canada. When he's not on set, Blair enjoys playing classical guitar and piano, and has even been known to study music theory. A part-time musician, Blair's laid-back nature and love of music make him a talented and well-rounded individual.
Blair currently resides in Toronto, Ontario with his wife and son, and is often seen on screen playing the leading role of William Pinkerton in the TV series The Pinkertons, which can be streamed on CHCH and Netflix.
