Vital Statistics

Born in Philadelphia, Stephen Macht was raised in Brooklyn Heights, NY, until his father's death. At age nine, he moved with his mother and older brother to live with his maternal grandfather, a haberdasher, in Mystic, CT. After graduating from Dartmouth College (where he roomed with future actor Michael Moriarty), Macht obtained two graduate degrees (including a Ph.D.) and became adept in Aristotelian concepts. While teaching at Queens College, he received approval by his department chair to appear in plays in New York in lieu of publishing scholarly articles as part of the tenure track. Spotted by a Universal Studios talent scout while starring at the Canadian Shakespeare Festival in Stratford Ontario Canada in 1975, Macht was signed to a contract and by the mid-1970's had left teaching and was making frequent appearances in TV episodes and movies.

Macht has made numerous appearances in made-for-television movies, including a role as Benedict Arnold in the 1984 CBS miniseries George Washington and a plane crash survivor in Flight 90: Disaster on the Potomac. He also landed roles on the primetime soaps Knots Landing and Melrose Place, the crime drama Cagney & Lacey and the sci-fi series Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.
