Tyler Griffin

Tyler Griffin was born on March 4, in Los Angeles, California. His father, Patrick Griffin is of English/Irish descent and his mother, Ileane Rusch is of (mixed) African-American descent, but looking at this blond hair, blue eyed kid, it's hard to believe! A third generation industry kid, music and movies have been a BIG part of his young life! His Grandmother was singer/actress and vocal coach Gloria Rusch, who performed all over the world with such legends as Duke Ellington, George Duke, Chick Corea and Stevie Wonder among others, and she also did some acting on TV and in features. Unfortunately he never met her as she passed away in January 2000 from Breast Cancer. His Father is composer Patrick Griffin. His mother, Ileane Rusch, a former (Arista recording artist), singer and actress turned talent manager and producer, was an energetic music and film aficionado that endlessly supported her children in the arts. She passed away in June 2019 after fighting breast cancer for 11 years,
