[This story contains some spoilers from the first three episodes of Chicago Fire season 12.]
With his 40-year career on stage and screen, actor David Eigenberg looks at his chosen profession as a roller-coaster ride of good fortune with some down times.
Upon trying his hand at acting after an honorable discharge from the United States Marine Corps Reserve in 1986, the early years of Eigenberg’s career seemed to meet with more roadblocks than successes. At one point, he contemplated going into the profession of construction. But soon after came breakthroughs and successful auditions for the then-hopeful young actor.
In 1999, Eigenberg became known by millions as the on-again, off-again boyfriend (and eventual husband — and then ex-husband) of Miranda Hobbes (Cynthia Nixon) on HBO classic Sex and the City and its follow-ups. But some might argue that his star shined brighter when he joined the ensemble cast of Firehouse 51 in 2012 on NBC’s Chicago Fire.

The SAG Awards sparkled. Women in beautiful dresses, perfectly accessorized; men crisply attired in suits or tuxes; and flash cameras and video everywhere—it was quite a scene. There was drama …
… and romance:
Boldface names made their way down the red carpet: the bolder the name, the faster they moved. Oops, there went Brad Pitt (Benjamin Button). Too late. But Alec Baldwin (30 Rock) did pause for a moment:
He picked up an award later that evening for male actor in a comedy series. Meanwhile, the unofficial award for cutest kids went to the ones playing adman Don Draper’s children in Mad Men. Kiernan Shipka looks sweet …
