Podcast: Actor’s Spotlight with Harry Northup

We are honored to present our latest conversation in our Actor’s Spotlight series.

Harry was featured in Martin Scorsese’s first six films WHO’S THAT KNOCKING AT MY DOOR, BOXCAR BERTHA, MEAN STREETS, ALICE DOESN’T LIVE HERE ANYMORE, TAXI DRIVER, and NEW YORK NEW YORK. Harry was also a frequent collaborator with maverick filmmakers Jonathan Demme and Jonathan Kaplan. Harry has been featured in SILENCE OF THE LAMBS, THE MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE, TOM HORN, and OVER THE EDGE amongst many others.

  1. Hi,

    I am writing a book on the making of Taxi Driver, my third with the encouragement of Robert De Niro . I would love to include Harry Northup’s contribution.

    Would it be possible to introduce Harry to our book.

    I look forward to hearing from you.

    Best
    Jay
