Peter Hershey

Born in Van Nuys, California, Peter Hershey began his serious ballet training at the Seiskaya Ballet Academy in St. James, New York at age eleven. He went on to attend both the School of American Ballet and the Juilliard School, under the artistic directorship of Benjamin Harkarvy. A member of Ballet San Jose since 2001, Peter's repertoire includes the role of Johnny in Dennis Nahat's Blue Suede Shoes, the Champion Roper in Agnes de Mille's Rodeo and Prince Alexis in The Nutcracker, as well as many soloist roles in ballets such as Who Cares?, In Studio D, District Storyville and Quicksilver.

In addition to his work with the company, Peter has taught various levels in the Ballet San Jose School and was also featured in Lise la Cour's production of Silly Simon.

He has performed in both Italy and Japan and looks forward to seeing the rest of the world someday.

Peter would like to thank everyone for their love and support.
