Steve Hendrickson

Steve was born in upstate New York and has lived in Minneapolis, New York City, Long Island, New Jersey, Baltimore, Boston and New Haven, Connecticut. He has survived a Force-10 gale in the North Atlantic, Yale Drama School and the smothering attention of four doting sisters. Interesting factoids include delivering his first litter of poodle puppies at age 8, pitching a perfect 7-0 1968 season for Campus Shell in the Madison, NJ Babe Ruth League and summarizing financial analysis for the world's most expensive weekly newspaper, The Wall Street Transcript.

With Ten Thousand Things, Steve has appeared in Measure for Measure, Tempest, Cymbeline, Winter's Tale, Cyrano de Bergerac and Merchant of Venice. The linking motif in all these is that Steve finished every performance on his knees begging for mercy.

Steve's non-TTT favorites include Roy Cohn in Angels in America 1 & 2 at Pillsbury House Theatre, Lawrence Brooks in The Fabulous Invalid at Emerson Stage in Boston, Dr. Zyclo in Anon(ymous) at the Children's Theatre Company, Roger in Silver Lake at the Jungle Theatre and Sir Charles Sedley in Compleat Female Stage Beauty at the Old Globe Theater in San Diego.

Steve has won several distinctions as an actor, including a 2005 Ivey Award, a 2001 Dayton-Hudson Distinguished Performing Artist Fellowship and the 2000 City Pages Best Actor Citation. He is proud to be a member of lipservicetalent.com, the only actor-owned union voiceover guild in the country. Steve lives in Minneapolis with his wife Lesley, an Elementary Media Specialist (we used to call them school librarians) in genteel poverty. They share their house with two boys, Ivar and Alec, a poodle named Carly and a cat named Hobbes. Steve loves to play pool, is a devotee of Aikido and a total movie geek.
