Phil Hartman

Seasons 12-19

Known as ‘The Glue’ for his incredible professionalism and versatility, Phil Hartman could elevate any sketch he was in. He was the ultimate utility player, a master of subtle character work and pinpoint impressions. He gave us the smarmy Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer, the over-the-top actor Eugene, and a definitive, comically frustrated Bill Clinton. Hartman’s presence guaranteed a level of quality and stability, making everyone around him better. After SNL, he found sitcom stardom on NewsRadio and became a beloved voice actor on The Simpsons. His tragic death robbed the world of a comedy genius whose understated brilliance was the bedrock of one of the show’s second golden era.
