About John Slattery
Before gaining fame for his Emmy nominated role as Roger Sterling on AMC's series Mad Men, character actor John Slattery specialized in utterly convincing portrayals of stoic businessmen, office workers, politicians, and other suits, whenever a film called for one. This typecasting rendered Slattery laudably versatile and prolific; his credits include such multi-genre blockbusters as City Hall (1996), Bad Company (2002), Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights (2004, in the Jerry Orbach role of the disapproving father), and Flags of Our Fathers (2006).
On television, Slattery memorably appeared in guest roles on such popular series as Sex and the City (as a politician wooing Carrie), Will & Grace (as Will's older brother), and Law & Order. He found work as a regular on shows like K Street and Jack & Bobby, and appeared in recurring roles on Ed (as a high-school principal) and Desperate Housewives, for which he again played a politician, this time wooing and marrying Gabrielle (Eva Longoria). In 2007, Slattery delivered a memorable evocation of an early-'60s slickster boss on the AMC network's ad-agency drama Mad Men. His most recent appearance was in Iron Man 2 as Howard Stark, Tony Stark's father.
Slattery is married to the actress Talia Balsam; they have one son, Harry.
