Description

With 164 credits on IMDb, Steve Buscemi lights the stage as one of the most recognizable actors in the entertainment industry, starring in films made by some of the biggest and most respected filmmakers, ranging from Quentin Tarantino, the Coen Brothers, to Adam Sandler. Aside from being one of the busiest actors in Hollywood since the mid-eighties, Buscemi spent his youth bravely fighting fires. From 1980 to 1984, he was a New York City firefighter and famously returned to his former firehouse to volunteer after the 9/11 attacks.

He was even arrested two years later for protesting the closures of several firehouses, including his former place of employment. This kind of heroism and dignity brings a charm to Buscemi’s personal life, which elevates his acting talents to establishing him as an icon. He’s crushed every role he’s been in and has always delivered a promising performance, no matter how large his role is.
