Biography
Evan Handler first earned acclaim in seven Broadway productions, including "Six Degrees of Separation," "I Hate Hamlet," "Brighton Beach Memoirs," "Broadway Bound" and "Master Harold...and the Boys."
On the big screen, he reprised his role as Charlotte's husband, Harry, in "Sex and the City," the box office hit based on HBO's award-winning series, in which he also starred for three seasons. Prior to that, he appeared in Ron Howard's "Ransom," starring Mel Gibson, and Oliver Stone's "Natural Born Killers." His other feature film credits include "Harvest," "Sweet Lorraine," "War and Love," "Dear Mr. Wonderful," "Taps" and "The Chosen."
On television, Handler co-stars with David Duchovny in Showtime's hit series "Californication." He also starred in ABC's series "It's Like, You Know..." and "Hot Properties," and NBC's "Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip." His movies for television include "The Three Stooges" for ABC and "Saint Louie" for CBS. Handler has made numerous guest appearances, including memorable performances on "Lost," "The West Wing," "Six Feet Under" and "Friends."
In addition to his acting appearances, Handler is the author of two books. Time on Fire: My Comedy of Terrors is Handler's critically acclaimed debut memoir detailing his unlikely recovery from leukemia. His second book, It's Only Temporary: The Good News and the Bad News of Being Alive, describes the years since the illness, which encompassed serial dating, absurd relationships, unexpected depressions and, ultimately, lasting love and a miracle conception.
In addition to his work on the stage and screen, Handler is a motivational speaker, health care educator, activist and reformer.
