For over six decades, George Hamilton has embodied the golden age of Hollywood glamour with a wink and a smile. Born in Memphis and raised with Southern charm, he transformed from a boy driving his mother's Cadillac across America into one of entertainment's most enduring icons.
At 85, George Hamilton isn't just an actor – he's a lifestyle, a philosophy, and living proof that elegance never goes out of style.
THE ACTOR
Seven Decades of Unforgettable Performances
From his Golden Globe-winning debut in “Crime and Punishment U.S.A.” (1959) to playing Colonel Sanders in 2016, George Hamilton has never been just another leading man. His portrayal of Hank Williams in “Your Cheatin' Heart” proved he could act. His self-parody in “Love at First Bite” showed he could laugh at himself.
“I'm not the best actor, but I'm a first-rate George Hamilton.”
Iconic Roles Include:
- • The Italian husband in “Light in the Piazza” (1962)
- • The dashing vampire in “Love at First Bite” (1979)
- • The Corleone family lawyer in “The Godfather Part III” (1990)
- • Georges in “La Cage aux Folles” (2011-2012)
THE ICON
More Than Just a Tan
Yes, the tan is legendary. But George Hamilton represents something deeper – the last of Hollywood's true gentlemen. He dated a President's daughter, survived an FBI investigation, befriended Imelda Marcos, and turned his divorce into a 50-year friendship.
His secret? “Make every woman feel like she's the only one in the room, find humor in everything, and never take yourself too seriously – even when the FBI is investigating you.”
THE FAMILY MAN
Behind the Playboy Image
The tabloids saw a playboy. The truth reveals a devoted son who never abandoned his difficult mother, a loyal brother who honored his gay sibling's memory through his art, and a father who stood by his son through 33 rehab attempts.
Today, he talks daily with his ex-wife Alana Stewart, proving that real love transcends marriage. As a grandfather, he's found his greatest role yet.
“I don't use the phrase 'I love you' very often, but I say it every time I talk to my children.”

The Film That Captured It All

“Logan Lerman portrayed me with such elegance and maturity. That's exactly how I felt – like I had to be the adult while still being a kid.”
