How Bellevue's Ned Brower got from real-life nursing to 'The Pitt'
If you watch HBO's hit series "The Pitt', you'll actually see a real-life nurse on screen: Ned Brower. He plays nurse Jesse Van Horn.
Brower is an actor with real-life ER experience.
Two careers are usually enough for most people. But he's also a musician. He started working as an EMT and later became a nurse after making his name with the band Rooney.
Brower’s new project is the electro-pop band, Bloodwerk. Listen to one of their singles, Truth Will Tell, here.
