John Corbett has had a journey from his early days as a steel plant worker to becoming one the most beloved boyfriends on 'Sex and the City' and the long-time love of Bo Derek.

won over audiences playing Aidan Shaw, the down-to-earth boyfriend of Sarah Jessica Parker’s Carrie Bradshaw on"Sex and the City," and fans were ecstatic when he returned for the second season of"And Just Like That…"

"My mom bought me a pawn shop cheapy guitar, you know, the kind with the strings six inches off of the fretboard, and Bob [his friend] would teach me some chords. I guess I was about 7 or 8 when I learned to play chords," he told the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal in 2011. "Then, one day some pipes came off the assembly line and hit me in the back. Next thing I knew, I was on disability, walking with a cane, popping painkillers."

He later switched his focus and enrolled as an acting student, taking classes in fighting and ballet. He was immediately hooked on performing. Before his first credited gig on an episode of"The Wonder Years," Corbett supported himself as a hairdresser, telling the Riverfront Times he was licensed in 1986 and joking that"you have to admit I still have pretty great hair. In fact, a lot of people think I must wear a wig.

Once the series ended, Corbett continued acting in movies like"Volcano" and"Serendipity" before he landed his biggest role as Aidan on"Sex and the City."
