Tim Daly, precisely 6ft 0 (182.9 cm) tall, has made his imposing yet approachable height a signature element of his on-screen presence as an American actor.
Born March 1, 1956, in Manhattan, New York City, to actor parents James Daly and Mary Hope Daly, he is the brother of actress Tyne Daly. His stature perfectly suited the everyman heroism of pilot Joe Hackett on the TV series Wings, where his 6ft 0 frame grounded the character's reliability amid comedic aviation antics.
Daly's height further amplified his rugged charm as neurosurgeon Dr. Pete Wilder on Private Practice. In films like Diner, Spellbinder, Basic, and The Associate, his exact 182.9 cm build enhanced versatile roles, from ensemble camaraderie to intense drama.
