Personal Life
Craig’s IMDb biography indicates that the actor was born in Rye Brook, which is in New York, on August 18, 1964. Craig’s nationality is American but has a Jewish mother who took on a Roman Catholicism conversion. During his schooling days, Craig attended Boston University aiming to pursue broadcast journalism. Despite not pursuing acting initially, the pressure of living in a house full of talented actors lead him into the acting arena. As such, he could only stay in the School of Public Communication for some time before enrolling at Northwestern University from where he took on a BS in Theater Arts and graduated in 1986.

Moreover, details of his siblings are not available.
