From sword-swinging Perseus in Clash of the Titans to the morally murky Cortland Mayfair in Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches, Harry Hamlin’s career spans over four decades of iconic performances and genre-defining roles. But while fans may know him from courtroom drama (L.A. Law), cult classics, or his Emmy-nominated turn on Mad Men, today’s Hamlin is also conquering the kitchen. With In the Kitchen with Harry Hamlin—now in its second season on AMC—he’s blending family, flavor, and fame in a deliciously personal way, cooking alongside celebrities and his niece, Renee Guilbault.
In this wide-ranging and wildly entertaining conversation with Awards Buzz’s Sari Cohen, Hamlin opens up about everything from playing Anne Rice’s most twisted immortal to crafting the perfect pasta sauce. They dive into his eclectic career, his new podcast (with his wife Lisa Rinna) Let’s Not Talk About the Husband, and how fusion energy, acting, and filets all fuel his passion.

From supernatural scheming in New Orleans to unscripted kitchen chaos in L.A., Harry Hamlin proves he’s still the most interesting man on screen—and maybe in your pantry.
