Robinson Peete can currently be seen weekly on Access Hollywood Live’s “Plugged In” panel. Recently, Holly made an appearance on Youtube’s WIGS’ web series Blue alongside Julie Stiles and also had a recurring role on hit comedy series “Mike & Molly”shortly after successfully launching the CBS daily talk show “The Talk” as one of the original co-hosts.  “The Talk” came on the heels of the enormous success Robinson Peete had on the third season of NBC’s “Celebrity Apprentice”.

Making it all the way to the finals, Robinson Peete set a fundraising record for her charity, HollyRod Foundation shedding a national spotlight on two causes very personal to the Peete Family: autism and Parkinson’s disease.

Holly Robinson Peete | Diversity Empowerment

Her first book, Get Your Own Damn Beer, I’m Watching the Game: A Women’s Guide to Loving Pro Football, won her the 2006 Quill Literacy Award. A celebrated author, Holly Robinson Peete co-authored with her 12-year-old daughter the NAACP Image Award-winning My Brother Charlie, a children’s book about autism from the sibling’s perspective.

Holly’s singing talents have been displayed on theme songs for both “21 Jump Street” and “Hangin’ With Mr. Cooper”, and she also did her own signing as Diana Ross in the miniseries “The Jacksons: An American Dream”. Robinson Peete says fondly that singing is her “first love and passion”.

Her longevity and visibility in the entertainment community has led Robinson Peete to a successful career as a spokesperson for some of the country’s biggest brands. Robinson Peete’s consumer friendly personal brand has partnered with Target, Toys”R”Us, Colgate , Skechers, Epipen and Carnation among others.

Holly Robinson Peete had her first experience in front of the camera at the age of four when she appeared on television opposite her father, Matthew Robinson who served as a producer and portrayed the original beloved character of “Gordon” on the award-winning children’s program “Sesame Street”.  While she knew even at that young age her calling was to be an actress, Holly opted to lead a typical childhood rather than searching to be the next child star.

Whether discussing how she maintains a successful work-life balance or her son’s autism, Holly Robinson Peete delivers inspiring keynotes filled with vital tips and roadmaps for managing their own lives and careers to her audiences.
