Edward Allen Harris was born November 28, 1950. Early television work included a recurring role on Lou Grant from 1979 to 1981. The Right Stuff in 1983 began a run of supporting turns that became a trademark: The Abyss, Glengarry Glen Ross, The Firm, Nixon, The Rock. He earned his first Academy Award nomination for Apollo 13 in 1995, followed by nods for The Truman Show and The Hours. In 2000 he directed and starred in Pollock. Later work ranged from A Beautiful Mind and A History of Violence to Snowpiercer and Top Gun: Maverick. From 2016 to 2022 he played the Man in Black on HBO's Westworld, a role that let him toggle between menace and existential unraveling.
