Chris Noth

Christopher Noth (born November 15, 1954 in Madison, Wisconsin) is an American film, stage, and television actor. Noth (pronounced like "both" not "moth") traveled throughout the United Kingdom, Yugoslavia, and Spain with his mother, former CBS News reporter Jeanne Parr. After graduating college, Noth starred in low-budget film Jakarta, and had small parts of films such as Smithereens and Baby Boom and on TV series such as Hill Street Blues and Another World. In 1988, he filmed a pilot for the dramatic legal/cop series Law & Order. In 1990, NBC began airing the show, which slowly but surely gained recognition from the critics and fans. The darkly handsome Noth's intense portrayal of Det. Mike Logan made him the most popular actor on the show, so viewers were stunned when producers fired him in 1995. Frequent personality clashes between Noth and the writers were cited; both sides remained cool towards each other but warmed up long enough to film a Logan-dominated TV movie, Exiled: A Law & Order Movie (1998). Noth scored a strong comeback in 1998 when he began the role of Carrie Bradshaw's enigmatic on-again/off-again boyfriend Mr. Big on HBO's cultural phenomenon Sex and the City. Noth played the role for 6 years, during which he also appeared in a small role as Helen Hunt's lover in the hit film Castaway (2000) and starred in a Broadway revival of The Best Man. Chris co-owns a New York City nightclub known as The Cutting Room. Chris can often be found on the NYC party scene, or in the local gossip rags. His long list of female friends includes actress Winona Ryder and supermodel Beverly Johnson, with whom he had an extremely volatile relationship which ended in litigation. On 9 February 2005, NBC announced that Noth would return as co-starring Mike Logan for the 2005-2006 season of the Law & Order series spinoff, Criminal Intent.
