Fans of HBO's Sex and the City have long debated about who was the best boyfriend to the core four characters of the show. Steve Brady, the lovable, down-to-earth bartender was the perfect match to balance out Type A Miranda Hobbs, making him an instant fan favorite upon his first appearance in season two. Actor David Eigenberg, best known for the role, turned 62 on May 17th, 2026.
Before heading to Hollywood to try his hand at acting, Eigenberg enlisted in the United States Marine Corps Reserve from 1982 to 1986. Once he started acting he had small roles in shows like ER, King of Queens, and Ghost Whisperer. But it was his role as Miranda Hobbs' "on again off again" boyfriend that made him most known to viewers.
At 62, Eigenberg has continued to play Steve in both Sex and the City movies and the now canceled spin-off, And Just Like That... His own hearing loss inspired Steve's hearing loss in later iterations of the franchise.
Steve Brady appeared just behind the character of Mr. Big for most consistent boyfriend on the series, so fans really got to know the ins and outs of the character. While he's not perfect and has flaws, he's praised for being "relentlessly positive, supportive, reliable and, devoted" to Miranda and fans of the show love how "he's in touch with his feelings more than most men, and he's uncynical." Vogue even called him "only truly good guy in the SATC extended universe."
