Rob Cesternino (b. October 20, 1978), was a cast member on both ' and '. In the Amazon, he dominated at the game of Survivor, forming alliances, all while trying to have a good experience. Rob made it to the final three where he was then voted out. He was declared by Jeff Probst to be "the smartest player to have never won Survivor".

In 2004, He came back to play "Survivor: All Stars", and was voted out in the Episode 4 by his tribe, after a handshake with Rob Mariano. The tribe voted him out because the tribe believed that Rob's savvy way of playing the game was a threat.

Originally from Wantagh, New York, Cesternino worked as a computer projects coordinator for an insurance general agency before Survivor. He had been previously employed as a store clerk, a waiter and a bartender. After receiving 1420 on his SAT's, he eventually went on to graduate from the honors program at the State University of New York at Oswego with a Bachelor of Arts degree in broadcasting. Cesternino wrote his college senior thesis on "The Impact of Reality Television" and received an A. While in college, he became a member of the Sigma Chi Fraternity.

After appearances on Survivor, Cesternino started a website, aptly titled The Rob Show. He was hired to write a weekly newspaper column for his local paper, "The Long Island Press". Cesternino also began to write material for a stand-up comedy act.

In 2004, he moved to Los Angeles, California to begin a career in production. Rob became a founding member of The FishBowl, an online talk radio station operated by reality television alumni.

Cesternino is one of the few reality television personas that has parlayed his exposure into some legitimate credits. In 2005, he co-wrote and produced the film "The Scorned". In 2006, he performed the same duties, along with acting, in the film "Soup of the Day", which was released on DVD on February 6th, 2007 through Echo Bridge Home Entertainment.

Rob currently writes and produces for a number of different episodic web series which can be seen across the internet.

Trivia and Comments

Rob then used this opportunity to talk with Matthew von Ertfelda the next day, and the two agreed to form a counter alliance with Christy Smith and Butch Lockley. At Tribal Council, the four voted to oust a stunned Alex.
