‏Stephen Gregory‏

The youngest of seven children, Stephen Gregory was raised in New York, where he attended Catholic school through the 12th grade. He began NYU's film program but left to pursue acting, studying with Stella Adler and Roy London before securing a part on the soap opera As the World Turns (1956). Then, after appearing in the film The Heavenly Kid (1985), he moved to Los Angeles, where he guest-starred on such shows as St. Elsewhere (1982), Star Trek: The Next Generation (1987), Houston Knights (1987) and NBC's You Can't Take It with You (1987). Then, after a three-year contract on The Young and the Restless (1973), Stephen left acting and began a media consulting and production company in Los Angeles. A producer on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit (1999) remembered him, however, and was able to lure him before the cameras once again. He now has a recurring role as Dr. Beresford on "Law and Order: SVU" and splits his time between New York and Los Angeles.
