Noth received a Golden Globe nomination for his performance as Mr. Big on HBO's Sex and the City and was Detective Mike Logan on Law & Order for five seasons.

This fall, Noth returns to Detective Mike Logan, the Law & Order character he originated, when he joins the cast of Law & Order: Criminal Intent, which enters its fifth season on NBC.

Noth's Detective Logan will partner with Detective Carolyn Barek (played by Annabella Sciorra), working in tandem with the Major Case Squad's Detectives Goren (Vincent D'Onofrio) and Eames (Kathryn Erbe), who employ a psychological approach, attempting to enter the minds of the criminals, when crime solving.
Noth enjoyed a successful Broadway run of the revival of Gore Vidal's The Best Man, starring opposite Charles Durning and Michael Learned. His most recent New York performance was Christopher Shinn's What Didn't Happen at Playwright's Horizons.
