Book excerpt: Recent results from searches for the SM and SUSY Higgs bosons in Run 1 at the Tevatron have been shown. The sensitivity of the present SM Higgs searches at the Tevatron is limited by statistics leading to a reach in p[bar p][r-arrow] VH production more than an order of magnitude higher than the SM prediction. The search for the neutral SUSY Higgs via p[bar p][r-arrow] b[bar b][psi][r-arrow] b[bar b]b[bar b] excludes regions in the tan[beta] vs M[sub A] space which extend significantly those previously probed by LEP. They have presented results from studies of the discovery and sensitivity reach for the Higgs bosons in Run 2. Combining all search channels and the data from both experiments a SM Higgs can be excluded at 95% CL over the full mass range M[sub H]
