- Stephen is the son of stuntman and actor Remo Pisani and Anne DeMarco, of the famous singing group The DeMarco Sisters. He is also the nephew of acclaimed actors Murray Hamilton and Keefe Brasselle, and cousin to Rocky DeMarco.
Marc Shaiman, whom Stephen has known since childhood, showed Stephen his first chords on the piano. Born with the DeMarco ear for music, Stephen plays multiple instruments, sings, and composes film scores, but does not know how to read music.
Stephen started his musical career in various rock bands in New York and New Jersey, and continued as a solo performer in many of the most notable clubs in those states. After a few years as a successful studio musician, Steve followed in his father's footsteps and moved to California (with his beloved Great Dane, Comet) to pursue careers in acting and stunts.
In California, Steve reunited with his childhood friend from South Plainfield, NJ, stuntman Dennis Madalone, and the two have worked on several episodes of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (1993) and Star Trek: Voyager (1995) together.

- Stephen has been an avid horror/sci-fi fan from an early age. When he was visiting his father, Remo Pisani, in Hollywood, at age 7, Remo took little Stevie to visit his favorite horror star -- Glenn Strange of Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein (1948) fame. (Ironically, while Steve's father Remo played Matt the bartender on Bonanza (1959), Glenn Strange played Sam the bartender on the rival TV western, _Gunsmoke).) The autographed photo that Glenn gave to little Stevie became the first item in his now-extensive collection of horror and sci-fi props, models, and other items -- which prominently features various Frankenstein collectibles.
