Steven Soderbergh has earned his wealth from his movies which turned out to be commercial Hollywood successes like Out of Sight, Erin Brockovich, and Traffic. He has also directed movies like “Sex, Lies and Videotape”, and the “Girlfriend Experience”. He recently directed movies like Contagion, Haywire, and Magic Mike. Steven got his much-needed break when he directed the Grammy-nominated concert video 9012Live for Yes, a rock band in 1985. He has also worked as a game show scorer and the cue card holder to meet his ends. But that’s not all. Soderbergh has worked as a freelance film editor, too.

His movie “Sex, Lies, and Videotape”, which he wrote in eight days, won the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival. It became a huge worldwide success. He was actually the youngest director to win the festival’s top award. Steven directed some low-budget movies too later in his career, which turned out to be a disaster at the box-office.

Steven Soderbergh was born in Atlanta. He is the son of Mary Ann and Peter Andrew Soderberg who was a university administrator. He discovered filmmaking when his family shifted to Stockholm.

Steven is married to the writer Jules Asner. He credits her for influencing the female characters in his movies. Steven has a daughter from her first wife Betsy Brantley. However, the marriage didn’t last as the couple divorced in 1994. Later on, Steven married Jules Asner – he has a daughter from her.
