Streaming Stars, Then and Now

Steven's early obsession with musical theatre and classic television made him a prepubescent entertainment nerd. At 15, a close family friend who owned the Apollo theatre, gifted him with his first piano. He became self-taught and has since entertained around the world - including Lincoln Center's David Geffen Hall, fka Avery Fisher Hall.

The pursuit of a BFA in Musical Theatre led him to productions in dozens of regional theatres and tours. (a couple of la Cage aux Folles, a few Chicago's, a bunch of South Pacific's and more . Home in NYC, he appeared in the drama desk award winning Howard Crabtree's Whoop Dee Doo, The Real Live Brady Bunch, Star Crossed Lovers etc. Others might have retired after doing a drag strip tease at the behest of Mike Nichols (during pre-production on Angels in America) while singing I've Got To Be Me, but not Steven.

It was his long-time job in the famed piano bars of NYC where he performed his twisted creations of "The Abba Power Mix," "The Dead Pet Medley", collections of TV theme songs and parodies that brought him to the attention of the Soloway siblings who cast him in the improv based Real Live Game Show/Real Live Brady Bunch.

He had a five-year-run as Tony Masters on Tom Fontana's OZ for HBO, has worked with both Paul and Mira Sorvino, voiced The Crimson Chin Shorts (Nickelodeon - Fairly Odd Parents), the daily horoscope reports for AT&T, and many commercials, and even appeared as "the riotous, rioting drag queen" Lucy Tania in the BBC film Stonewall.

Ultimately, it was his encyclopedic knowledge of classic television that led him to Nick@Nite and TV Land where he rose to senior producer. He's an EMMY nominee, winner of the Viacom Vision Award for outstanding company contributions, and a multi-award-winning writer.

After moving to LA, Steven wrote the LA Emmys for 5 consecutive years. He was the Creator/Executive Producer of the pilot "Life Interrupted" which garnered 20 Festival Awards including for the Principal Actors, Direction, Editing. The original theme song he co-wrote with Robbie Rist also won several awards.

At the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences he was a member of the Diversity Committee (6 years), a standing committee of television professionals dedicated to a more inclusive landscape in television/new media both in front of and behind the cameras.

He's involved with several charities including the Sunland, California based Making it Happen, Inc. (serving the homeless and underemployed).
