All that, and Steve Park never even expected to be an actor. Though he did consider filmmaking, "acting and filmmaking were not legitimate career choices," Steve says, remembering the way in which he was brought up. Still, before he knew it, he "fell into acting" and graduated with a degree in theatre. Always the class clown, Steve then headed to New York to join the stand-up comedy scene. While the comedy route has helped him land great jobs on shows like In Living Color, it was hardly all fun and giggles. "It was something I felt obligated to do," Steve says.
