Growing up in New York City's Chinatown gave Bern an urban and multicultural background before going to suburban Long Island's Valley Stream South High School where he was introduced to acting. Bern later double-majored on full scholarship in Theater and Education at Adelphi University, subsequently earning graduate degrees from Columbia University and New York City College. Bern's earliest acting included stage work with Mercedes Reuhl, Samuel L. Jackson, Rupert Holmes, Sesame Street and Zoom before he left his career in Theatre and went into Education to be more of a parent than a young actor's schedule allowed. He promised himself he'd return to acting at a later date. Years of experience in public education and the private sector gave Bern a mature, evolved edge when he resumed his acting career in 2005 after he furthered his study of Camera Acting with Penny Templeton and Ruth Nerkin. Since then, Bern has starring, supporting and principal roles in more than 100 movies and TV shows, including recurring TV roles as Jon's Dad in the series, Jon Glaser Loves Gear; and the family's Rabbi in The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. Recent movies had Bern acting directly with Richard Gere, Steve Buscemi, Lena Olin, Fran Drescher, Justin Long, Henry Ian Cusick, Jesse Eisenberg, Geza Rohrig and Sean Penn, among others. In his last theater season before committing his time solely to camera acting, Bern starred in Richard Abron's Every Day a Visitor at NYC's Clurman Theater. During prior theater seasons, he starred as Abbie Hoffman in the one-man show, Abbie at New York City's West End Theater and in the first stage adaptation of Malamud's The Assistant at the Turtle Shell Theater. - IMDb Mini Biography By: Anonymous
