My Take

Harry Hamlin fascinates me as a study in range and reinvention. A Yale-educated actor from Pasadena, he went from playing Perseus in Clash of the Titans—pure mythic spectacle—to anchoring L.A. Law as Michael Kuzak, earning three Golden Globe nominations for sharp, grounded courtroom work. That pivot from sword-and-sandals hero to prestige television lead tells me he understood his own craft better than the industry did. Add the books and the entrepreneurial ventures, and you get someone who treats a career as something to be authored, not endured. I find his longevity quietly impressive: still working, still curious, decades on.

Overview

Harry Robinson Hamlin (born October 30, 1951) is an American actor, author, and entrepreneur. He is widely known for his roles as Perseus in the 1981 fantasy film Clash of the Titans, a role he reprised in 2007's Santa Monica Studio video game God of War II, and as Michael Kuzak in the legal drama series L.A. Law, for which he received three Golden Globe nominations.
