Hank Azaria is Now a FatherActor Hank Azaria recently joined the fatherhood ranks according to reports. His girlfriend Katie Wright gave birth to a baby boy. Although the baby was born prematurely he seems to be doing well. In fact, Azaria’s spokesman was quoted as saying that the newborn was “healthy and strong.” The couple named their newborn Hal.

Azaria, who does a lot of voice over work, revealed that he put his skills to use when communicating with the unborn baby. He was quoted saying, “I get inspired to talk to him like John Lennon occasionally. He seems to like it, he gets very kicky when I talk this way.” We may not all have the voice skills of this talented guy, but many people talk to their babies before they are born. This is a practice that is recommended by some experts as a means of helping the baby get used to the parents’ voices.

Before finding love with his current girlfriend, Azaria was married to actress Helen Hunt of Mad About You fame. The marriage ended after one year. He and Katie Wright have been dating since 2007.

At 45-years old Azaria is certainly not as young as many Hollywood parents but maturity certainly counts for a lot. He is also much younger than some such as Larry King and Michael Douglas.

The busy actor can expect his life to get a little busier now that he has added to his family. There is no word on whether he has plans to add to his brood. No doubt right now he is just enjoying the moment. I certainly wish him and his girlfriend well, and hope for the continued health of the newborn.
