After years on the move, Y&R’s Sean Dominic is ready to stay in one place

Sean Dominic was living in New York City when he landed the role of Y&R’s hunky doc, Nate Hastings. “I was out here hitting the pilot season and Y&R was one of the last ones I had,” the actor recounts. “After I auditioned I said, ‘I’ve got a flight back to New York in a couple of days,’ and my agent was like, ‘Hold up!’ ”

That was because Dominic’s new shooting schedule was set to begin the following week, which meant there wasn’t time for him to officially relocate his life from one coast to the other. “I’m still moving,” he chuckles. “Most of my stuff is in New York!”

Pulling up stakes is nothing new to Dominic, who moved frequently through his childhood along with his two younger brothers, Andre and Julian, because their single mother, Gayrene Martin, was in the Air Force and shipped from one base to another. “We were moving constantly, and it was the norm, so I was always looking for the next adventure,” he shrugs. “Most of my closest friends were military kids, but either they would move or I would move. I didn’t know any different. That was the life.”

After six changes of address, the brood finally settled down in Delaware. “I went through all of high school in Delaware,” Dominic says. “My mom was actually supposed to get transferred to another state after my freshman or sophomore year but she fought to stay there.”

For the most part, Dominic was a model student. “I would flip-flop,” he recalls. “I’d make honor roll one year, but not make it the next year and then make it the next year.

I don’t know what was going on with me, but I was an overall good student. I knew how to conduct myself in class and didn’t really have any issues.”
