Michael Robinavitch

Michael "Robby" Robinavitch is a fictional character and protagonist of the HBO Max medical procedural drama series The Pitt, portrayed by American actor and series executive producer Noah Wyle. The character was introduced in "7:00 A.M.", the show's pilot episode, as the Senior Emergency Attending Physician of the emergency room of the Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Center. He is depicted as a talented if slightly reckless and irascible physician with a sharp wit and intense dedication to his patients and his team, which earns him the respect of the doctors and nurses, but often the ire of the hospital's administrators. During the first season, Robby contends with the trauma of losing his mentor, Dr. Adamson, during the COVID-19 pandemic while working a shift on the anniversary of his death. The character and Wyle's performance have received acclaim from critics, with Wyle receiving several awards and nominations including two Primetime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series.
