How Many Children Does John Lithgow Have? In the upcoming American thriller television series based on the 2017 novel of the same name by American mystery and thriller novelist Thomas Perry, John Lithgow plays Harold Harper.

The series, created by television producer and screenwriter Jonathan E. Steinberg and Robert Levine, is a compelling but uneven game of cat and mouse. It will premiere on FX on June 16, 2022.

Harper, played by John Lithgow, is one of two former CIA agents who alternate as the quarry and hunter, as well as the “old man” of the series’ title.

Ian is also an actor and has featured in Michael Almereyda’s recent movie Tesla and the HBO series Perry Mason. Ian is also a marriage and family therapist. John and his then-wife Jean divorced in 1980 after the actor had an affair with actress Liv Ullman.

In 1981, John married Mary Yeager, Professor Emeritus in the History department at the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA). They have been married for over 40 years now. In an interview, the actor recalled that he first met Mary when they were fixed up together by a mutual friend.

The pair have two children together, Phoeba and Nathan. Their daughter Phoebe was born in 1982. She lives a relatively low-key life and is presently pursuing a medical career.

In 1983, their son, Nathan was born who graduated from The International Culinary Center and currently serves as a chef across different clubs in New York. Further, he also dabbles in music production and is the bassist and vocalist of the post-punk band, the Nomads.

Nathan has also obtained Bachelor’s Degree in Music and Photography from NYU Gallatin.

In order to get delve deep into the skin of a man of faith, John had to immerse himself into the world of someone who had faith. He said, “I am not a man who’s grown up religious.”

He added, “I had to figure out some sort of spine of reality there for which I literally went and sought spiritual counseling, quite cynically, I think, an Assembly of God minister that I found in the Yellow Pages.”
