Biography
Hogan was born in August 1965 and grew up in Dartry, Dublin, Ireland. He is the son of Brian Hogan, a prominent Dublin architect, and Marie née Lawton. His grandfather, Sarsfield Hogan, was a noted Irish civil servant and insurance company executive. Stephen says he studied architecture at Edinburgh University but upon graduating did not see himself in that profession for the remainder of his life. He says he obtained financially useful scholarship to Royal College of Music and Drama in Glasgow (Royal Conservatoire of Scotland), and was also able to obtain a part-time job in an architect's office at the same time.
Upon qualifying from drama school in 1992 Hogan says he was lucky to get a role on the long running Scottish Soap drama Take the High Road with its "crazy characters", his recollections of his storylines as new character was "I worked my way through the entire female case over 60 episodes". He moved to London after leaving the soap, but has returned to Ireland frequently for work and pleasure since.
His uncle, Paul Hogan, was one of two students behind the audacious 1956 theft of Summer's Day from the Tate Gallery. Hogan played his uncle in a radio play based on the event in 2005, and is collaboration on attempts to develop a film based on the theft. Hogan states on Twitter he is a director of Gallery Films.
Hogan adapted to the UK's first Covid-19 Pandemic lockdown by adapting purchasing a quality digital microphone and investing in acoustic paneling which enabled him to record audiobooks such as City in Flames, though he says building work pile-driving near his home has caused inconveniences. He say he voiced the character Kurtz from the Conrad novel Heart of Darkness from his home for a BBC4 production.
Hogan has interviewed about the upcoming Netflix 2022 release of Vikings: Valhalla where he has the character of Ealdorman Sigeferth of Wessex.
