Michael J. Peluso

Michael was born just outside of Boston to Ned and Gloria Peluso, both Italian Americans. His father was a firefighter and painter and his mother was a homemaker. He has two older sisters; each with two children. At the age of 34, Michael enrolled in the BFA Theater Arts program at Salem State College. While there, he was in 2 shows and was nominated both times as an alternate for the Irene Ryan Acting Award. Before acting, he was a Ski Representative and traveled extensively throughout the Northeastern U.S. It was then that a mentor encouraged him to pursue acting stating, "you're in the wrong business". While shooting Title to Murder in 1999, he was signed by Maggie Models Inc., one of Boston's oldest and most respected agencies.
