Milton French Stewart was born on February 20, 1964, in Albuquerque, New Mexico. In 1998, Stewart married
Dennis Hopper’s ex-wife,
Katherine La Nasa (star(red) in
Love Monkey), and gained a step-son, Henry.
Stewart acquired a B.F.A. in Theatre Arts from American Academy of Dramatic Arts, and then spent the next seven years acting in regional theater. Apparently, Stewart’s first television work involved starring in a new version of
WKRP in Cincinati (strangely enough, named
The New WKRP in Cincinnati). French played the part of Razor Dee in the second, and last season of this syndicated sitcom. A year after that show went off the air, French appeared in two guest-starring roles, on
Seinfeld and
The Larry Sanders Show before turning up in his first major motion picture, appearing as Lieutenant Ferretti in 1994's
Stargate, the film that lead to the Showtime (and later SciFi) series
Stargate: SG-1 and SciFi’s
Stargate: Atlantis. Then in 1996, French acquired the role for which he is most famous, playing the part of Harry Solomon on
3rd Rock from the Sun for six seasons (1996-2001). While still starring in that show, French also starred in two other series, lending his voice to 1998's one-season Disney series
Hercules, and later providing the voice of Bob Allman in 2000's very short-lived NBC animated sitcom titled
God, the Devil and Bob. Since the end of
3rd Rock from the Sun, French has continued to work in both television and film. He is currently attached to a series titled
Misconceptions for a network that will cease to exist at the end of the 2005-2006 television season. It is conceivable that the show might turn up before the end of that network’s life, or the show might turn up on the new
The CW (the new network made up from a merged
The WB and
UPN).
