Aaron Lazar Biography

Aaron Lazar is a SAG Award winner and Drama Desk Award nominee who has starred in 11 Broadway productions. He debuted in "The Phantom of the Opera"; originated roles in the world premieres of "A Tale of Two Cities," "Impressionism" and "The Last Ship"; starred in the revivals of "A Little Night Music" and "Les Miserables"; and romanced audiences in "The Light in the Piazza" at Lincoln Center and "Live from Lincoln Center" on PBS. In Los Angeles, Lazar starred as Larry Murphy in the first national tour of the Tony Award-winning smash "Dear Evan Hansen" and as Dr. Neville Craven in "The Secret Garden," both at The Ahmanson Theatre.

On film and television, Lazar can be seen wearing hot dog fingers in The Daniel’s Academy Award-winning film "Everything, Everywhere All At Once" and Season 5 of "Yellowstone." He has worked with legendary directors Clint Eastwood ("J.Edgar"), Martin Scorsese ("The Wolf of Wall Street"), Shawn Levy ("This is Where I Leave You"), Mary Harron ("The Notorious Bettie Page") and The Russo Brothers ("Avengers: Infinity War" and "Avengers: Endgame"). Lazar was also one of the stars of “Filthy Rich” on FOX with Kim Cattrall.

As a singer, Lazar has been a guest artist with some of the world's top symphonies, including The New York Philharmonic, The New York Pops at Carnegie Hall, The National Symphony Orchestra at The Kennedy Center, The Boston Pops, The Jerusalem Symphony Orchestra at Masada, The English National Opera Orchestra and The Hollywood Bowl Orchestra. His acclaimed concerts Broadway to Hollywood and All For You (with Tony Award nominee Kate Baldwin), play cabaret clubs and PACs around the country.

Diagnosed with ALS in January 2022, Lazar has since become a prominent advocate and keynote speaker on healing in the face of adversity and the spiritual mindset of health. He currently performs his original speaking platform, The Impossible Dream, across the United States for organizations as big as BIO and Novartis, to audiences as intimate as those in friends’ living rooms. It’s all part of Lazar's mission to expand consciousness and empower others to know that, “we all have the power within us to make the impossible, possible.”

Lazar holds a BA in music and pre-med from Duke University and an MFA from the Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music where he was honored with the prestigious Katz Alumni Award. He lives in Los Angeles with his two teenage boys. His debut album, Impossible Dream, is a collection of inspiring duets featuring 50+ Broadway stars on the title track.
