This Blue-eyed, fair-haired, boyish young man brought to life and brought his career to life with the hero Luke Skywalker in the blockbuster "Star Wars: A New hope" and the later sequels. As the central character who finds his future by finding his past, he epitimized the journey from boyhood to manhood through these three stories and sets the framework for the later struggles of Luke in the expanded universe.
 

The son of a US Naval captain, Hamill grew up in California, Virginia, New York and Japan. While a student at Los Angeles City College he made his professional acting debut in "The Bill Cosby Show" (1970). He went on to regular or recurring roles on the soap "General Hospital" and sitcoms "The Texas Wheelers" and "One Day at a Time" before landing the star-making part in "STAR WARS". Hamill became the ideal boy-next-door type and this saw him cast in roles which capitalized on these assets. Between the "STAR WARS" movies, He starred in the teen comedy "Corvette Summer" (1978), "The Big Red One" (1980), and "Britannia Hospital" (1982).

In the mid-80s Hamill moved to New York. He worked on Broadway appearing in the lead roles of "The Nerd" and "Amadeus". Then he starred in the British- made sci-fi "Slipstream" (1989) as a futuristic bounty hunter. Film and TV work has found Hamill typecast in sci-fi and action adventures, thrillers and fantasies, even in the animated world. He was the voice of the zany  Joker in the animated BATMAN TV series and feature "Batman: Mask of the Phantasm" (1993). HE made his CD-ROM debut as star of the computer game "Wing Commander III: Heart of the Tiger" (1995).
