Stevan LeRoy Pippin was born in Casa Grande, Arizona, son of M.C. and
Lillie Pippin, now of Panama City, Florida. Stevan attended Santa Ana
Valley High School in Santa Ana, California. The seeds of his
professional career were originally planted on the music side of the
business as musician/singer with the popular garage band, "The Groupe".
Moving to Nashville, Tennessee in the seventies gave Stevan his first
real shot at the business. Shopping himself as a singer/songwriter,
Stevan immediately signed a publishing deal with legendary writer Curly
Putman ("Green, Green, Grass Of Home"), and parlayed that deal into
other areas of the business, including a recording deal with Capricorn
Records, which led to being featured singer for numerous national and
regional Radio/TV ad campaigns. It was from that point that the TV side
of Stevan's career was launched. Stevan landed his first audition for a
national spot in 1983, in the role of Loretta's Lynn's son-in-law in
her famous Crisco spots. Stevan is currently serving his tenth year as
President of Screen Actors Guild (Nashville Branch) and is actively
producing records, singing, and acting in films and TV.
