A native of Boston, MA, who grew up in Florida and Connecticut, actress Vail Bloom attended Ivy League Princeton University as an architecture major, but caught the acting bug when a friend invited her to essay a role in a short-subject film. Bloom landed her first major industry role with a part as a harried casting assistant in the 2007 #92;comedy Finishing the Game, then signed for an ongoing portrayal of Assistant District Attorney Heather Stevens on the CBS daytime #92;soap opera The Young and the Restless. ~ Nathan Southern, All Movie Guide
