Tim Daly has been able to transcend his leading man image to portray an extensive range of characters in all mediums of his craft, broadening a career already rewarded with Broadway triumphs and a wide spectrum of film and television roles.

He is currently co-directing (with acclaimed cinematographer Clark Mathis) his directorial debut “Bereft,” starring Vinessa Shaw, Marsha Mason, Edward Herrmann, Tim Blake Nelson, and Michael C. Hall. “Bereft” is the story of a Vermont widow haunted by the memory of her husband.

Daly is on a hot streak, and has most recently been seen in “Basic” with John Travolta and Samuel L Jackson, which hit theaters this past Spring. Prior to that film, he was seen in the Showtime telepic “The Outsider” opposite Naomi Watts, which aired in November 2002. And another notable success was his portrayal of “Richard Kimble” in the CBS Television remake of the hit series “The Fugitive.” Daly’s creative palette includes a wide scope of projects, from history making television series to imagination expanding motion pictures. Daly also portrayed “Dan White,” the 1978 assassin, who murdered San Francisco’s first openly gay supervisor, “Harvey Milk” and the Mayor “George Moscone” in Showtime’s drama “Execution of Justice.” He also served as executive producer on the project, revealing his vision and determination, as well as his acting prowess. This film won the GLAAD Awards for “Outstanding Made for Television Movie.” He followed this up with the lead role in the miniseries “Storm of the Century,” the thriller created especially for television by best selling author Stephen King, as well as co-starring in the romantic comedy “Object of my Affection” with Jennifer Aniston and Paul Rudd. He again flexed his leading man muscles with a prime role in Tom Hanks’ miniseries “From the Earth to the Moon,” in which he played legendary astronaut Jim Lovell.

Daly then accepted a new challenge and re-entered the television arena as the voice of “Superman.” The animated series builds upon the “Superman” success story as one of the world’s strongest icons. Daly also provides the hero’s voice for the recent home video feature, “The Superman/Batman Movie.”

He is best known for his work on the landmark series “Wings,” where for eight seasons he portrayed airline pilot “Joe Hacket.” This opportunity afforded him the opportunity to perform in front of a live audience, which was reminiscent of his early theatre background. Other notable roles include his performance in “Denise Calls Up,” which received the Special Jury Prize at the 1995 Deauville Film Festival, in addition to being awarded a special mention for the Camera D’Or at the 1995 Cannes Film Festival.

Daly began his professional career while a student at Vermont’s Bennigton College, where he studied theatre and literature and acted in summer stock. His first leading film role was in the now classic “Diner,” directed by Barry Levinson, which also launched the careers of some of today’s most respected actors. Starring roles soon followed in Alan Rudolph’s feature “Made in Heaven,” the American Playhouse production of “The Rise and Rise of Daniel Rocket” and the CBS dramatic series “Almost Grown.”

In legitimate theatre, he has starred in the Broadway production of “Coastal Disturbances,” “Oliver, Oliver” at the Manhattan Theatre Club, “Mass Appeal” and “Bus Stop” at Trinity Square Repertory, “The Glass Menagerie” at the Santa Fe Festival Theatre, “A Knife in the Heart” and “A Study in Scarlet” at the Williamstown Playhouse and “Paris Bound” at the Berkshire Theatre Festival. He and wife Amy Van Nostrand both won DramaLogue Awards for Best Actress and Best Actor in the Coast Playhouse production of “Colorado Catechism” in Los Angeles.

Daly resides on the east coast with his family.
