Steve is of part-Italian ancestry through his grandparents, and also has Jewish roots, as his mother is Jewish.

Before he became an actor, Steve worked as the entertainment director of the famous Riviera Hotel and Casino. He turned to acting in the mid- ‘90s and had his first role in the film “Casino” (1995), directed by Martin Scorsese and starring Robert De Niro, Sharon Stone, and Joe Pesci. However, his role went uncredited. In 1998 he was cast in his first major role, as Goon in the comedy adventure “Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas”, with Johnny Depp, Benicio Del Toro and Tobey Maguire in the lead roles, but in the next few years couldn’t land any notable role. That changed in 2000, when he was selected for the role of Bobby Baccalieri in the TV series “The Sopranos” (2000-2007). In the beginning, his role didn’t influence the whole show much, however, as the show moved forward, his role rose in importance as did his character, becoming the underboss to Tony Soprano, played by James Gandolfini. Steve won an SAG Award for his work on the show.

He stayed focused on the show, but also had several other acting engagements, including the portrayal of Arliss in the action comedy film “See Spot Run” in 2001, with David Arquette, Michael Carke Duncan and Leslie Bibb in the lead roles. Then in 2008 he gave his voice to Roberto in “Open Season 2”, and two years later again voiced Roberto in the third installment of the animated film. In between he was selected for the role of Leo Boykowitch in the TV series “The Secret Life of the American Teenager” (2008-2013), which beside the role of Bobby is one of his most memorable appearances to date, and had the lead role in the drama “The Hungry Ghosts” (2009), all of which added to his net worth.

In 2014 he portrayed Vito in the biopic about lives of the members of the rock group The Four Seasons – “Jersey Boys” – while in 2015 he featured in the family drama “Chasing Yesterday”. Also in 2015, Steve was selected for the role of Anthony Abetemarco in the TV crime-drama series “Blue Bloods”, and in two years appeared in 23 episodes, further boosting his net worth.

Aside from acting, Steve has had success in other aspects of the entertainment industry, including being the host and narrator of the crime-drama series which is in part a documentary, entitled “Nothing Personal” back in 2011, and also hosted the TV crime-drama series “Karma’s a Bitch” (2013), which also added to his net worth. Furthermore, Steve is an accomplished author; his Italian ancestry and boss portrayals helped him develop the “Goombas” character, and he has written a number of books based on the character, including “A Goomba’s Guide to Life” (2002), “The Goomba’s Book of Lov”, and “The Goomba Diet: Large and Loving It” 2006), among others, the sales of which have added significantly to his wealth. Also, Steve launched a line of vegan pasta sauces called Uncle Steve’s Italian Specialties Group, a tasty addition to his wealth.

Regarding his personal life, Steve has been married to Laura Lemos since 1989; the couple has two daughters together.
