Who is Stephen Baldwin?
GREGG DEGUIRE
Stephen Baldwin is an actor from a family of actors, including his brothers Alec, William, and Daniel. They also have two sisters, Elizabeth, who heads cancer research nonprofit The Baldwin Foundation, and Jane. The siblings grew up in Massapequa, New York. Their parents were a high school social studies and history teacher and a homemaker, according to The New Yorker.
The family happens to have a pretty historic lineage, with their family tree going back to the Mayflower. The Associated Press reported the Baldwins are directly related to John Howland, who was a servant to John Carver, the first governor of New Plymouth County.
Stephen was a big supporter of Donald Trump in 2016, and reportedly had some conflict with his oldest brother. Alec did impersonations of Trump on Saturday Night Live, and Stephen at one point said they were no longer on speaking terms.
Stephen’s first big role was on the ABC western The Young Riders. Baldwin went on to star in a number of films throughout the ’90s, including Posse, 8 Seconds, The Usual Suspects, Bio-Dome, and The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas in 2000. He went on to make appearances in reality shows like The Celebrity Apprentice and Celebrity Big Brother.
