Simon Gregson | Known For: Coronation Street, On Air For 60 Years

Simon Gregory, who adopted the stage name Simon Gregson when pursuing a career in show business, was and still is known for giving life to Steve McDonald’s character in Coronation Street. It was the first paid stint of his career, and he’s lucky to be able to say that he’s still part of the cast 32 years later.

Over the years, while he performed in Coronation Street, the 46-year-old has also appeared in TV Burp, Red Dwarf, and Steve & Lloyd’s Streetcar Stories. Gregson is fortunate to have learned to balance his career while successfully maintaining a marriage and raising three kids.
