In a fluid dynamic pressure bearing, upper herringbone grooves and lower herringbone grooves continuous with the upper herringbone grooves are formed on the inner peripheral surface of a sleeve by plastic deformation. In addition, an annular groove recessed radially inward is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the shaft in a location opposing the region where the upper herringbone grooves and the lower herringbone grooves adjoin.
