Peter Xifo

Pete was born and raised in So Cal, except for a brief sojourn to Paris France, where he spent several years of his childhood, he is what you can call a native Californian. Pete caught the acting bug in high school but really wasn't a cast-able type coming out of college, so he pursued a career as a scenic designer and artist. A bit older and more experienced by life, he decided to try acting again and was amply rewarded by being Taft-Hartley'd into SAG and then quickly joined AFTRA and has now been working as an Actor for over 20 years. He's added On-Camera work to his resume and has appeared as a guest star on "The Mentalist" while he has also had 3 National on-camera commercials running simultaneously. Pete has portrayed hard grizzled Cowboy villains, an Amish farmer, a Wizard, as well as Doctors, Lawyers, Professors, Shrinks, Judges, Grandpas and even the occasional Rabbi and of course, Santa. Pete truly delights in being a character actor who can play an age range between 55 and death---and beyond.
