Stephen's journey as an actor began in the 1970s, following a decade marked by turmoil and transformation in the 1960s. Despite the challenges faced by many of his peers, Stephen continued to explore his passion for the craft, taking on a wide range of roles in film, television, and theater.
Throughout his career, Stephen has had the privilege of working alongside some of the most talented individuals in the industry. He has shared the screen with legendary figures such as Orson Welles and Woody Allen, and has even had the opportunity to perform alongside the inimitable Johnny Carson as part of The Mighty Carson Art Players on The Tonight Show.
Stephen's impressive credits include starring in a film nominated for an Academy Award, as well as appearing in films that have won prestigious festival awards. He has also made a name for himself on the World Wide Web, and can be found on platforms such as JibJab.com and YouTube.
The stage has long been a special place for Stephen, and he has had the honor of starring in numerous award-winning plays throughout his career. In recent years, he has taken on lead roles in four world-premiere plays, and has also been a founding member of the hit comedy improv troupe, Cat Venom.
In addition to his work as an actor, Stephen is also a skilled stand-up comedian, and has even mastered the art form in honor of his mentor, Johnny Carson. However, his most unlikely claim to fame may be his connection to the legendary Three Stooges, as the cousin of Larry Fine.
Beyond his work as an actor, Stephen has also earned a reputation as a Master Sifu, or teacher of Qigong/Internal Healing and Martial Arts. He has also had success in another, undisclosed career, but has vowed to take the secret to his grave.
