Sasha Reiz is an Israeli-born Canadian actor.
Sasha is the son of Russian Jewish parents. Sasha has a brother, Elan. The family moved to Montréal, Québec, Canada, when Sasha was seven years old.
Sasha has stated:
I’m of Russian-Jewish background. Like many Soviet Jews, my parents were engineers. My family migrated from Ukraine to Israel when I was six. They arrived in Israel with very little… Within a year of arriving in Israel, the Yom Kippur War happened. My father served in the army, had two boys and thought, ”This is not for me”. We moved to Canada, which reminds me of Australia. It’s friendly, gracious, open.
Sasha speaks fluent Russian.
