Gene Doherty
Santa Claus
Santa Gene has a REAL beard!
Santa Gene has been working as a professional real bearded Santa since 2004. He has portrayed Santa for The Del Monte Center's Christmas season many times.
Santa Gene has a degree from The International University of Santa Claus, and regularly attends Santa conventions. He is also a member in good standing of the Amalgamated Order of Real Bearded Santas, an international organization boasting membership of more than 1,000 men who are "dedicated to the joy of being Santa."
Santa Gene's mission statement:
"To provide a joyful and kindhearted experience year round to children and adults through an accurate portrayal of the unique qualities of the original Santa."
“As a professional Santa Claus, Gene has performed for my office and at our local mall for several years now. He has always epitomized the essence of Santa both in his demeanor and attitude. His patience with children is inspirational, his appearance is impeccable, and his joyful nature is sincere. Being a real bearded Santa makes him so much more convincing ... I have seen many Santas in my time and none has compared to the experience Gene brings to every one of his appearances."
