Peter Bergman

Born in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, Peter Bergman spent his childhood moving around America because of his father’s career in the Navy. After moving to New York to pursue acting, he was cast on All My Children in 1979 as Dr. Cliff Warner and rose to fame as one-half of the Cliff and Nina supercouple. When he was let go after 10 years, Bergman was tapped to assume the role of Jack Abbott on Young and Restless. He has become a Y&R powerhouse, earning three Daytime Emmys as Outstanding Lead Actor (in 1991, 1992, and 2002) and the 1993 Soap Opera Digest Award for Outstanding Lead Actor. Bergman’s other credits include the iconic “I’m not a doctor, but I play one on TV” commercial for Vicks Formula 44 and episodes of Kojak and The Nanny. He and his wife, Mariellen, have two children, son Connor and daughter Clare.
