Abbott's career began as a dancer/actor in the Oregon Shakespeare Festival in Ashland, Oregon, where he spent three seasons in the late 1970s. In 1980, Abbott relocated from Portland to Hollywood ("in the middle of the actors' strike, and I didn't know ANYONE," he recalls). Shortly afterwards, he was cast as the villain in the movie "Tag". He met his future (first) wife, Linda Hamilton on the set. The union produced one child, Dalton Bruce (born October 4, 1989) (who can be seen in "Terminator II" as "Infant John Connor").

Bruce and Linda divorced circa 1989. That same year, on the Dallas, Texas, set of the TV movie "Trapped", Abbott met actress Kathleen Quinlan. They married April 12, 1994 and have 1 son, Tyler Quinlan (born October 17, 1990).

Throughout his career, Abbott has been a guest star on many TV series "Murder She Wrote", "Family Law", "", and more. He had a recurring role in the short-lived series "The Net", based on the film of the same title starring Sandra Bullock.

Abbott is semi-retired from acting. He is an architect and artist and works in the custom-design industry. He has designed his last two homes.

Of rumors about "House of Re-Animator", the announced next film in the series, he says, "I think the Re-Animator saga may have gasped its last."
