With a resume as long as Santa’s List, Ron Robertson has been the embodiment in every type of media, from print to film.

From advertisements for Best Buy, Pet Smart, Rosetta Stone, and the Travel Channel to guest spots in series such as “Castle,” “The Mentalist,” and “The Tonight Show,” Ron’s natural, gentle manner and jovial smile are perfect for the camera and on-screen.

But there is a deeper side to Ron, a man who holds such high regard for the role of Santa Claus and the traditions associated with him that he is willing to share and educate his fellow Santas.

Ron is Director and President Emeritus of the International Brotherhood of Real Bearded Santas. In that capacity, he has stood not only for excellence in the portrayal of Santa Claus among that body of Kringles but for excellence throughout the entire Santa Claus community.

An advocate for the traditions of Santa Claus, Ron is willing to share his love and attention to the character with all who wear the red suit.
