Ia dilahirkan secara prematur di Saginaw, Michigan dengan ibu Lula Mae Hardaway. Ada kemungkinan ia mendapatkan terlalu banyak oksigen dalam inkubatornya, dan hal ini menyebabkan kebutaan. Hardaway mengajarkan anak-anaknya yang lain untuk memperlakukan Steveland seperti orang lain, tidak mengejek atau membantunya terlalu banyak. Ia mulai belajar menyanyi dan memainkan alat musik di gereja sejak usia dini, terutama piano, conga dan harmonika.
