Biografia
Peter Kluge, born and raised in Rochester, New York, has been a professional actor for nearly two decades. He earned his Bachelor of Arts degree in Theatre and Speech from Wittenberg University in Springfield, Ohio, and Fordham University in New York City. He further honed his acting skills under the guidance of the late Rod Marriot of Circle Repertory Company in Manhattan.
Kluge's first leading role was in 1984 when he originated the character "Paul Tucker" in the Emmy Award-winning after-school special The Day The Senior Class Got Married (CBS), adapted from Gloria Miklowitz's novel. He later portrayed "Mark" on NBC's Santa Barbara, which opened doors to numerous television and film opportunities. His credits include starring and guest appearances on Ned & Stacey, Mr. Belvedere, Better Days, Roomies, Loving, As The World Turns, The Insiders, Dark Music; The Elvis Presley Story, Honor & Duty, One Life To Live, and General Hospital.
In 1994, Kluge produced and starred in the Los Angeles premiere of Lloyd's Prayer, Kevin Kling's two-act comedy and winner of the 1988 Humana Festival. His extensive theater experience includes Off-Broadway productions such as Equus (Nugget), Dial M For Murder (Max), and California Suite (Max), as well as regional theater roles in A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum (Miles), Death (Kleinman), and Whose Life Is It Anyway? (Eden). Additionally, he has appeared in over seventy national commercials and modeled in major print campaigns for brands including Izod, Toshiba, Bon Appétit, Amway, Kodak, Ray-Ban, and Marlboro.
In 1996, Kluge founded GKS Entertainment, LLC, a Los Angeles-based music mastering and recording facility, serving clients such as Blink-182, Limp Bizkit, The Crystal Method, K-Ci & JoJo, and No Doubt. Over six years, GKS handled nearly sixty percent of the advanced recordings for the Los Angeles music industry.
Building on his interests and business expertise, Kluge ventured into talent management by co-founding Intrigue Entertainment, LLC. There, he was instrumental in signing and developing artists like Ray Proscia (Vanilla Sky, Catch Me If You Can), Victor Webster (Days Of Our Lives, Mutant X), Mary Elizabeth Winstead (Passions, Wolf Lake), and Darryl Theirse (Jessie, Philly).
In April 2001, Kluge departed Intrigue to establish Impact Artists Group, LLC, an independent management and production company. He quickly signed emerging talents including Joshua Swanson (Van Wilder: Party Liaison, Do Over, Dragnet), Collin Stark (Anna's Dream, Mixing Karma, Speed Demon, The O.C.), Kevin McCorkle (The X-Files, Cold Case), Amanda Tepe (Iowa, Then Came Marriage), Jessica Rey (Power Rangers), Rob Moran (Shallow Hal, Me, Myself & Irene, Dumb & Dumber), and Zakk Moore (In Your Face, The Challenge).
Regarding his company, Kluge stated, "My vision embraces a management philosophy that has been lost in recent years. It’s not just about signing today’s star talent; it’s about fostering an environment that encourages personal growth and responsibility. We seek true talent, not merely the next impulsive, undisciplined celebrity. We are a family committed for the long term.
