A Canadian actor and stage director, Leonard Joseph Cariou (born September 30, 1939) is best known for playing Sweeney Todd in the original cast of Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, for which he won the Tony Award for Best Actor in a Musical, and for portraying Henry Reagan, the patriarch and retired NYPD Police Commissioner, in the multigenerational television series Blue Bloods on CBS.
Who is Len Cariou wife Heather Summerhayes?
Len Cariou, a star of Blue Bloods, has been wed to Heather Summerhayes Cariou for more than 30 years. The wedding took place on October 25, 1985. They reside in New Jersey, which is the ideal state for Heather’s author profession and Len’s television career.
In 1959, Cariou made his stage debut in Damn Yankees at Winnipeg’s Rainbow Stage. He also helped found the Manitoba Theatre Centre. He was given the opportunity to accept a scholarship at the National Theatre School of Canada in Montreal, but he had to turn it down since he was married, had a young child, and had financial obligations.
Instead, he spent two years honing his craft at the Stratford Shakespeare Festival in Stratford, Ontario. He later returned to the festival in 1981 to direct the company as Prospero, Coriolanus, Brutus, and Petruchio.
