Biography
Jon Hamm stars as ‘Don Draper’ on the award-winning, critically acclaimed AMC original series MAD MEN, created by Matt Weiner, about the professional lives, social mores and sexual exploits of advertising executives on Madison Avenue circa 1960. Among his many accolades for his performance on the show, Hamm won the 2008 Golden Globe Award for Best Performance by an Actor in a Television Series – Drama and has been nominated for two Emmy Awards for Lead Actor in a Drama Series and Screen Actors Guild Awards for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Drama Series (the cast received the award for Best Ensemble in a Drama Series at the 2009 Screen Actors Guild Awards).

He also completed work on the independent thriller STOLEN LIVES, with Josh Lucas. Additional film credits include KISSING JESSICA STEIN, WE WERE SOLDIERS and SPACE COWBOYS.
Hamm completed a three-episode arc on the Emmy-winning comedy 30 ROCK, in which he played a love interest to Tina Fey, a performance for which he earned an Emmy nomination as Outstanding Guest Actor in a Comedy Series. Other television credits include hosting duties on SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE, the popular Lifetime television series THE DIVISION as well as WHAT ABOUT BRIAN, THE UNIT, NUMB3RS and CSI MIAMI, among others. He landed his first big role in the NBC series PROVIDENCE on which a cameo performance turned into an 18-episode run. Hamm received BA in English from the University of Missouri-Columbia.
