Steven Strait was born on March 23th, 1986 in New York City, New York. As a kid, Steven grew up in Grenwich Village with his family. He attended Xavier High School and enrolled himself at the Stella Adler Studio of Acting to pursue his dream as an actor.
But before he was recognized as an actor, Steven got early recognition as model while he was a teenager. Steven modeled for Details, Pop, Spoon, Surface and even Vogue as a teen model. He's also worked with famous photographers such as Bruce Weber, Ellen Von Unwerth and also Herb Ritts. Working with Weber got Steven featured in his 2001 book, All-American: Short Stories.
Acting didn't come naturally for Steven. Even though most actors out there knew that they wanted to act as a kid, Steven actually didn't enjoy acting. He first learned about acting when he was with a family member at the age of eleven. Steven's parents thought acting could very well be Steven's career and they decided to classes at the Village Community School.
Not too long later, Steven caught the acting bug. He eventually got the chance to perform live and that was when Steven thought he could actually make something he enjoyed a lifetime career. This passion eventually brought him to work at the Stella Adler Acting Studio and the Black Nexus Acting Studio which are both situated in New York City.
When he turned 18, Steven graduated from Xavier High School and he moved to California with hopes to pursue a real career in acting. It was only a matter of time as when Steven went to his first audition, he received an acting job which was a role in the movie, Sky High. Sky High marks Steven's acting debut in the movie industry.
Steven then signed on to do this movie, Undiscovered about a group of teenagers who aspire to be famous. Undiscovered wasn't a big hit at the box-office but critics enjoy watching Steven playing the role of Luke Falcon. The movie also starred another movie newcomer, songstress, Ashlee Simpson.
The time finally came when Steven was asked to star in the horror movie, The Covenant, playing the role of Caleb Danvers. In the cast, Steven worked with actors, Taylor Kitsch, Toby Hemingway and also Chace Crawford. The Covenant was a big hit in certain parts of the globe and fans got to learn more about Steven's acting talent. The critics too were impressed with Steven.
The year 2008, is probably Steven's busiest year since he started acting. Steven signed on to do a couple of movies in the year 2007 and promotion work for his movies will start from March 2008 onwards. Critics are also already excited to see Steven's work in the movie 10,000 BC, also starring Camilla Belle. He appeared in the MTV Production movie, Stop Loss as Michael Colson. Steven recently completed working on a movie named "City Island" in New York.
Aside from participating in fashion and acting, Steven is also known to most people as a singer. Steven has performed a few songs in the soundtrack album of Sky High and Undiscovered.
Steven so far has proved that he is a multi-tasking star in the business. Even though he may seem to be famous, Steven claims that he tries to keep himself grounded from all the fame. At 22, this star has already impressed most entertainment critics whether in modeling, acting or singing.
