약력

Robert Hegyes was born in Perth Amboy, New Jersey, to an Hungarian-American father, Stephen, and an Italian-American mother, Marie Dominica (Cocozza). He is the eldest of their children. The others are: Mark Hegyes, MD - Billings, Montana, Ms. Stephanie Hegyes - Princeton, New Jersey, and Ms. Elizabeth Cocozza - Los Angeles, California. Robert began studying acting in earnest at Metuchen High School under the direction of Dr. Barton Shepard, Ph.D, in the mid-1960s. He was accepted into the Theater Program at Rown University of New Jersey (formerly Glassboro State College) and, in the early 1970s, graduated with a BA in Theater & Secondary Education. Hegyes then ventured into New York City to practice his trade, immediately taking up with the "Greenwich Village Children's Repertory Companies", "Theater in a Trunk", and "The NYC Children's Puppet Ensemble". In short order Robert hooked up with his third Greenwhich Village troupe, "Jack LaRumpa's Flying Drum & Kazoo Band", performing improvisational anti-war comedy in Washington Square and the Provincetown Playhouse. Within a year of graduating from Rowan, Hegyes was cast to co-star in the Manhattan Theater Club Emsmble's highly-acclaimed drama, "Naomi Court", which starred another young actor, Brad Davis (of Midnight Express (1978)). After completing that successful engagement Robert was tapped to co-star for Tony Award-winning actor/director Len Cariou, A Little Night Music (1977) & Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (1982), in the Broadway drama, "Don't Call Back", starring Arlene Francis at the Helen Hayes Theater. It was during the run of that Broadway drama that he was cast by producer James Komack to star in the award-winning comedy series, Welcome Back, Kotter (1975) and, at the age of twenty-five, became one of the show's directors. Robert has guest-starred in over thirty episodic series, including Saturday Night Live (1975) with host Quentin Tarantino, Diagnosis Murder (1993) with Dick Van Dyke and The Drew Carey Show (1995). He has starred in the award-nominated "Passat" commercial, "The Chase", for director Kinka Usher and in the feature films, Honeymoon Hotel (2004) opposite Jane Kaczmarek, Underground Aces (1981) with Melanie Griffith, Bob Roberts (1992) for director Tim Robbins, Purpose (2002) starring Mia Farrow, and Bar Hopping (2000) alongside Kevin Nealon. Hegyes made his Los Angeles stage debut to rave notices as Chico Marx in Arthur Marx's play, "An Evening with Groucho", and was shortly thereafter cast as a series regular starring in the award-winning drama, Cagney & Lacey (1981). Robert has been awarded a lifetime artist-in-residence status at his alma mater and has taught there and continues to guest lecture regularly. He is also a California Certified Secondary Education Teacher and teaches for the Los Angeles Unified School District at Venice High School. As a long-time resident of Venice, California, Robert and partner Craig Titley, (Cheaper by the Dozen (2003)) developed the original Internet series, "The Venice Walk".

밥 로버츠(Bob Roberts: 팀 로빈슨 분)는 가수이자 자수성가한 백만장자이고 펜싱 애호가이며 정계의 유력한 인물이다. 그가 중하층 출신이라는 점을 보면 그의 성공은 미국이 기회의 나라라는, 다시말해 아메리카 드림은 여전히 실현가능한 것임을 웅변하는 모범적인 사례임을 기억해 둘 필요가 있다. 1990년 밥 로버츠는 미 상원의원에 출마하여 펜실베니아주의 선거 유세를 시작하면서 시작한다. 로버츠는 명쾌하고 단순하면서 심금을 울리는 방식으로 60년대 관용주의와 정치적 천진성이 파괴시킨 가치들의 회복을 주장하여 중산층 관중들의 환호를 받는다. 가수 출신인 밥은 유세장에서 자신이 옹호하는 보수주의 노래를 부르며 유권자의 정서에 파고든다. 이것은 90년대 스타일의 활동적이고 강력한 선거운동으로 무례함, 알콜중독, 마약, 성 문란 등을 상대방의 미온적 경제정책과 그것이 야기한 경기후퇴 탓으로 돌린다. 이러한 전략이 적중하여 밥에게 유리하게 나타난다. 그런데 방해꾼이 나타난다. 신문기자인 아랍계 벅스 래플린은 밥이 대부금 유용과 마약밀매에 연루되어 있다는 증거를 발견한 것이다. 그것이 폭로되자 밥의 선거운동은 타격을 받게 되는데...
