Biography

Ed Harris built a distinguished career shaped by theater discipline and a steady presence in American cinema. After early stage work in New York, he gained recognition with The Right Stuff and solidified his range in Glengarry Glen Ross, Pollock, and Apollo 13, combining character depth with rigorous preparation. His directorial work on Pollock reflected a strong interest in biographical storytelling, while later television roles—most notably in Westworld—expanded his long-form narrative work. Harris maintains an approach rooted in precision and sustained dramatic focus.
