The son of a Vietnam Veteran who served in the Navy, Neil Patrick Harris came to stardom as a young boy in the iconic Doogie Howser, MD. Unlike many child stars, Harris has survived and thrived with grace and dignity and a mature talent. In addition to a starring role in the network hit, “How I Met Your Mother”, Harris was a massive hit as the host of the nationally-televised 2009 Emmy Awards.
