Mr. Picardo appeared as the holographic Doctor in all 7 seasons of "Star Trek: Voyager." He is also known for his Emmy-nominated role of Mr. Cutlip on ABC's "The Wonder Years," and as military surgeon Dr. Dick Richard on ABC's "China Beach." Born and raised in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Robert Picardo ("Bob") attended Yale University as a pre-med student, where he landed a role in Leonard Bernstein's "Mass," a musical theater piece originally commissioned for the 1972 opening of the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. In 1974, armed with a B.A. in Drama from Yale, he enrolled at the Circle in the Square Professional Theater Workshop (fellow alumni include Kevin Bacon and Ken Olin). His theatrical work prospered (in 1976) when he appeared in the David Mamet play "Sexual Perversity in Chicago," and with Diane Keaton in "The Primary English Class."

In 1977, Bob made his Broadway debut in the leading role in the comedy hit "Gemini" with Danny Aiello. He went on to co-star with Jack Lemmon in Bernard Slade's "Tribute" in 1978 on Broadway and in a west coast run which brought him to Los Angeles. His work in theater also includes "Beyond Therapy" and "Geniuses" at the Los Angeles Public Theater, "The Normal Heart" at the Berkeley RepertoryTheater, for which he won a Drama-Logue Award, "A Class Act" at the Pasadena Playhouse, and "On the Twentieth Century," for which Bob was nominated for an Ovation Award.

The awards and recognition continued as Bob became involved in television. He was nominated for an Emmy Award for his role as Mr. Cutlip on the ABC series "The Wonder Years." Bob was awarded the Viewers For Quality Television Founder's Award for his outstanding performances in "The Wonder Years" and as military surgeon Dr. Dick Richard on "China Beach." Bob's extensive television work has included a starring role opposite Helena Bonham-Carter in NBC's movie-of-the-week "Fatal Deception: Mrs. Lee Harvey Oswald," the HBO movie "White Mile," and the NBC mini-series "Deadly Matrimony." He has had recurring roles on "Stargate SG-1," "The Lyon's Den," "Home Improvement," "L.A. Law," and "Alice." He has guest-starred in such series as "The Dead Zone," "The Practice," "Frasier," "Crossing Jordan," "Seven Days," "Ally McBeal," "Outer Limits," "Early Edition," "ER," "Tales From The Crypt," "Amazing Stories," "Benson," and "Taxi."
