Harry Hamlin at 75: Lisa Rinna’s Husband, From Clash of the Titans to Broadway
Lisa Rinna is trending in the United States on Friday, 30 October 2026, after appearing on Live with Kelly and Mark in a Halloween recreation of Kylie Jenner’s orange “Marty Supreme” premiere look. The appearance has put the spotlight back on Rinna’s family — and on her husband of nearly three decades, Harry Hamlin, who turns 75 on the very same day. The site has also profiled Sunny Ozell, Patrick Stewart’s wife, in a similar celebrity-family piece.
Harry Hamlin is an American actor whose career runs from the fantasy epic Clash of the Titans in 1981 to the legal drama L.A. Law and, this autumn, a Broadway return alongside his wife. He is not simply a celebrity spouse. His own screen career began years before he met Rinna, and it has kept reinventing itself across film, television, theatre and writing.

A Pasadena Childhood That Led to Yale and the Stage
Harry Hamlin was born on 30 October 1951 in Pasadena, California, the son of Bernice Robinson Hamlin and Chauncey Jerome Hamlin Jr., an aeronautical engineer. He attended Flintridge Preparatory School near Pasadena and The Hill School in Pennsylvania before going on to Yale University.
At Yale, Hamlin graduated in 1974 with degrees in drama and psychology. He then trained at the American Conservatory Theater in San Francisco, earning a Master of Fine Arts degree in acting in 1976. That classical grounding shaped a career that has moved between stage and screen ever since.
From Perseus to Michael Kuzak: A Screen Career in Two Acts
Hamlin’s film breakthrough came as Perseus in Clash of the Titans in 1981, a role that made him a widely recognised screen presence. He had already appeared in Movie Movie in 1978, for which he received a Golden Globe nomination for new star of the year.
His defining television role followed as attorney Michael Kuzak in NBC’s L.A. Law, which he played from 1986 to 1991. The performance brought him three Golden Globe nominations for best actor in a television drama. Later television work included a recurring role as Jim Cutler in Mad Men, which earned him a Primetime Emmy nomination for outstanding guest actor in a drama series.
More recent screen work has included Shameless and the AMC supernatural drama Mayfair Witches, in which he played family patriarch Cortland Mayfair in 2023. In 2010, he published the memoir Full Frontal Nudity: The Making of an Accidental Actor, recounting his early years in the business.
Nearly Three Decades Married to Lisa Rinna
Hamlin and Lisa Rinna married in March 1997, and they have been married for more than 29 years. They share two daughters, Delilah Belle Hamlin and Amelia Gray Hamlin, who were reported in October 2026 as aged 28 and 25.
Before Rinna, Hamlin was previously married to actresses Laura Johnson and Nicollette Sheridan. He also has a son, Dimitri Alexander Hamlin, with actress Ursula Andress. The family has appeared together in public life for years, including during Rinna’s long run on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, where Hamlin was a familiar presence.
Other profiles in this series include Kate Kane, Harry Kane’s wife.
Their marriage is now back in the professional spotlight as well. Rinna and Hamlin are set to appear together on Broadway in It’s a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play, with Hamlin playing Mr Potter and Rinna playing Violet. Previews begin at the Broadhurst Theatre on 4 November 2026, with an official opening on 18 November, and the run is scheduled through 3 January 2027. It is their first Broadway appearance together since Chicago in 2007.
What Harry Hamlin’s Money and Public Profile Actually Show
Hamlin’s earnings are often estimated on celebrity wealth websites, but no reliable primary source publishes a verified personal fortune for him, so his net worth is recorded here as not publicly verified. The same applies to his height and to any social media handles attributed to him.
What is documented is a working career spanning five decades, a published memoir, and business interests outside acting, including involvement with the fusion-energy company TAE Technologies. His public profile rests on that body of work rather than on a single fortune figure, and it should not be confused with his wife’s separate earnings or brand ventures.
