He fought in the Korean War. Before entering politics, he worked at General Electric and the American Sterilizer Company.[3]

He was first elected as a Democrat to the Pennsylvania House of Representatives in 1971, then serving 9 consecutive terms. While a legislator, he was elected Majority Caucus Administrator (1983-1990). Bernard Dombrowski was also appointed to the Legislative Budget and Finance Committee (1977-1980), and the Joint Legislative Air and Water Pollution Control and Conservation Committee (1981-1982, 1985–1990).
