biography
Gaunt but strapping and ruggedly handsome, Harris is an Irish lead who, after stage experience and several good supporting roles in films, came to prominence in the British "angry young man" school of "kitchen sink" realism, portraying a rough rugby player in Lindsay Anderson's "This Sporting Life" (1963). He started out as a stage actor, playing King Arthur in "Camelot" in the 1960s and again in the 80s. His other shows include "A View from the Bridge", "The Ginger Man", "Diary of a Madman", and "Man, Beast and Virtue". His 1990 London run of "Henry V" won several awards. Behind the scenes,
