Sam Waterston is the proud father of four children. He has two sons, James and Graham, and two daughters, Elisabeth and Katherine. Sam welcomed James in 1969 with his first wife, magaizne editor Barbara Rutledge-Johns. They got divorced in 1975, and the following year, Sam married former model Lynn Louisa Woodruff. Sam and Lynn welcomed Elisabeth, Katherine, and Graham together between 1997 and 1983.

Most of Sam’s kids have followed in his Hollywood footsteps. James, Elisabeth, and Katherine all act, while Graham works as a producer, director, writer, and crew member on different movie productions. Sam has even shared the screen with some of his kids before! 

Here, Sam is joined by daughter Katherine and his wife Lynn at his Hollywood Walk of Fame Star Ceremony in Los Angeles, California, on January 7, 2010. To see more photos of Sam with his loving family, click through the gallery.
