Hal Linden Walks NYC Reflecting on Barney Miller Role, His Acting Career & Life Lessons He's Learned

At 93 years young and with an incredible career that’s spanned more than 65 years, the amazing Hal Linden is showing no signs of slowing down. We were fortunate to have him stop by the LifeMinute Studios after giving us a little tour of the city he grew up in and the one that catapulted him to fame, playing the iconic New York City police precinct captain Barney Miller. An entertainer all his life, he started his career as a successful big band leader, singer, and clarinet player until the acting bug took over. He made his Broadway debut at age 26, followed by dozens more Broadway productions, a Tony Award, multiple Emmys and Golden Globe nominations for Barney Miller, and several feature films, his most recent, starring alongside Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Eddie Murphy in 2023’s You People. This is a LifeMinute with the legendary Hal Linden.
