Steve Sandvoss grew up in the suburbs of New York City and attended school there and in Connecticut before enrolling at Harvard University. Studying at Harvard at the same time as Natalie Portman, he was active in the artistic community, pursuing amateur photography, studying poetry and American prose, and often choosing edgier roles in student-written plays as well as in such classics as Shakespeare (Romeo & Juliet, Julius Caesar) and Brecht (Galileo, Ba'al).
In addition, he directed readings of his own work at Harvard and wrote criticism and essays for several undergraduate periodicals. While at Harvard he commuted back and forth from New York City to pursue professional acting and modeling.
He graduated from Harvard with the distinction Cum Laude and now lives fulltime in Los Angeles. Fluent in Chinese, Steve has received study grants that have taken him to six continents. He is an avid outdoorsman, an inquisitive scholar, and a habitual non-conformist.
Fresh off the heels of his first starring role in the upcoming film Latter Days, Steve is poised to become a major and original force in Hollywood. Unafraid to delve into risky and controversial subject matter, Steve’s work is already a reflection of his relentless creative vision. Considering the early buzz about his work in this groundbreaking film, fans should expect more exciting projects from this rising young star.

Winner of OUTfest, Critics Choice: STEVE SANDVOSS, "Emerging Hunk Award"
Media response to his performance in "Latter days":
"Unapologetically romantic and ultimately touching, [Latter Days] is a crowd-pleaser.... In particular, Sandvoss is terrific as the devout Mormon struggling with his sexuality. A confrontation with his mother (Mary Kay Place) is heartbreaking -- and will make you angry that anyone could be so cruel to such a sweet young man." Visalia Times-Delta, September 12th, 2003
"Steve Sandvoss is a star. [He's] excellent in his film debut and we'll be seeing more of him in the future."Miles Swain, director of "The Trip"
"Steve Sandvoss is especially appealing as the Mormon missionary.... Sandvoss has Brad Pitt looks as well as the presence and unabashed charm for stardom." Ain't it Cool News.Com, July 14th, 2003
"The heart of the film is Steve Sandvoss as Aaron. His character is so sweet and genuine, that you can't help but feel for his heart-wrenching decision—whichever path he chooses, you don't want him to get hurt. Steve Sandvoss takes a good movie and makes it pretty darn great." MOVIEPIE.com
