Steve James was often cast in action movies as the hero's sidekick, despite usually being a better actor and fighter than the star. James was raised in New York City, attended C.W.

He began his career in film as a stuntman, working in ''The Wiz'', ''[[Warriors, The|The Warriors]]'', and ''The Wanderers''. His first major film role was as [[Robert Ginty|Robert Ginty's]] sidekick in ''The Exterminator''; he later played the faithful sidekick to [[Michael Dudikoff]], [[David Carradine]], and [[Chuck Norris]]. He is also remembered for his roles in ''[[To Live and Die in L.A.]]'' and ''[[Hero and the Terror]]''. Steve James passed away on December 18, 1993 at the age 41 of pancreatic cancer.
