A native of Chicago, Illinois, Romanovich is a Los Angeles-based TV producer and co-host. He broke into producing TV with the series Mysteries, Magic & Miracles, which debuted on SyFy in 1994.
St. John first came to the attention of daytime fans after he was cast as Adam Marshall on the short-lived NBC soap opera Generations. After that show came to an end, Kristoff St. John was hired to play Neil by the late William J. Bell, creator/head writer/senior executive producer of YR. After doing a few non-contract episodes, Bell phoned St. John while he was on set and asked if he’d like to stick around for a few years.
That was the beginning of St. John’s memorable and powerful run in Genoa City. The actor was paired With Victoria Rowell (ex-Dru). He won two Daytime Emmys for his work on the show. St. John passed away in 2019. The Young and the Restless airs weekdays on CBS. Check local listings for air times.
