Robert Neary was born and raised on Long Island, NY. He gained immediate success, as an actor, after moving to Los Angeles, when he was 20 years old, with a guest star role in the television series "Fame", and then opposite Jason Bateman in the film, "Teen Wolf Too". After a 2 year stint on General Hospital, as Officer Frank Marino, Robert moved to Nashville to pursue Contemporary Gospel music. He recorded 2 solo projects, before returning back to LA and his first love of acting. He has since gone on to guest star in over 50 television shows, including "Criminal Minds", "The Blacklist", "FBI: Most Wanted", "Sons of Anarchy", "The Closer", "Grey's Anatomy", " Blue Bloods", "Justified", "The Fosters", "FBI: Most Wanted", "Weeds", "Medium" "NCIS" and "NCIS New Orleans". He has also done over 25 national commercials and Motion Pictures.
Robert landed his 1st Broadway show in 1996, starring in "Smokey Joe's Café", where he met his wife, Natasha. Together they went on to tour in the Elton John, Tim Rice Broadway hit, "Aida", where he played the evil, Zoser.
In 2017, Robert returned to NY, for a 3rd time, when he understudied the lead role of Sonny, in the Broadway smash, "A Bronx Tale, The Musical", and got the chance to perform the famed role, over a dozen times.
Robert has since put the acting completely in the back and has reveled in the reinvention of his career. To be able to put together something this incredible, and to live out a life long dream of being a rockstar is truly an amazing blessing. To be able to do it with the timeless music of Neil Diamond, is just the icing on the cake.
