Bruce Peter Solomon (born August 12, 1944) is an American television and film actor, best known for the roles of Sgt. Foley in the TV show Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman and Kenny Zuckerman in Beverly Hills, 90210.

Solomon was born August 12, 1944, in New York City.

Solomon starred as the title character in the short-lived 1977 television series Lanigan's Rabbi, but is best known for his portrayal of Sgt. Foley on the TV show, Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman. His acting teacher, Joan Darling, one of the directors for Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman, chose him for that role, despite the fact that it was originally written as an older, middle-aged policeman. When Solomon was cast in the role it was rewritten as a young, handsome, "ever-on-the-make" police officer. He was also known for the role of Kenny Zuckerman in Beverly Hills, 90210.

In addition to his role of Rabbi David Small in Lanigan's Rabbi, he would also play a rabbi in the 2000 film, Harrison's Flowers.

Solomon was part of the cast of the comedy series E/R, which included Elliott Gould, Jason Alexander, and Mary McDonnell. His many guest star appearances in other series included Barney Miller and Resurrection Boulevard, and films including The Candidate and Foul Play. One of his earliest movies was Children Shouldn't Play with Dead Things, in 1972. He was also in the 1986 TV movie, Maricela, about the daughter of an affluent American family who resents the daughter of the live-in maid from El Salvador. The TV drama was produced for public television's WonderWorks series.
