Throughout his successful career, Harvey has continued to be a force in stand-up comedy. In 1997, he toured as one of the Kings of Comedy alongside Cedric the Entertainer, the late Bernie Mac and D.

In 2006, Harvey released the family-friendly DVD "Don't Trip, He Ain't Through With Me Yet." Due to the overwhelming demand for his original style, he released a comedy special on DVD in 2008 entitled "Still Trippin'" to critical success.

In addition to his presence in the world of entertainment, Harvey is an active humanitarian and is involved in several communities across the country as well as national charities. He and his wife, Marjorie, founded the Steve & Marjorie Harvey Foundation in order to provide uplifting and educational opportunities for youth.

For over 10 years, he has hosted The Neighborhood Awards, formerly known as the Hoodie Awards, his popular awards show honoring local businesses, religious and neighborhood leaders, churches and high schools for their contributions as well as excellence within their own neighborhoods.

In addition to his many projects, Harvey continues to expand his clothing and accessories brand, The Steve Harvey Collection. His multi-faceted success has led to appearances on numerous morning, talk, news and late-night shows, including "Good Morning America," "The Ellen DeGeneres Show," "The View," "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon," "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" and many others.
