David Eigenberg on his long journey to 'Chicago Fire'

Actor David Eigenberg may be fighting fires on NBC’s “Chicago Fire,” but he’s been burning all this life. “I was just an angry young kid. I think I was a little bit on fire,” he admits. “As you come into life as a young person, it’s frustrating and you don’t understand it.
