Appearance: Harold is slightly heavyset and his stomach is a little rounder than his wife would like. His chestnut hair is curly but receding dramatically, leaving him with about half of a bald head. Because of his profession, he is normally seen wearing a grey or brown suit. His face generally carries a pleasant disposition, though he has a pair of arrogantly arched eyebrows that were also inherited by his son.

Languages Spoken: English, Hebrew, some Italian

Personality: To most, Harold is polite and amiable. He is professional and a hard worker and is known for being understanding and lenient with his subordinates. At home, Harold is a patient father who always puts his son first. He does his best to provide for Ferris but is careful not to spoil him. His wife, Ruth, tends to nag Harold endlessly. They bicker constantly, but deep down, it is out of affection. There is a darker side to him that is rarely seen by his loved ones, and he is surprisingly proficient with firearms.

Hobbies: Travel, photography, collecting comic books

History: Harold was born in Southport, NY, and has many family members scattered throughout the state and New York City. He had relatively wealthy parents and an easy city life. In school, Harold was considered to be a brilliant mathematician by his instructors and peers. Upon going to college at Yale University, he met Jack Frischman, who would grow to become his closest friend. Upon graduation, Jack introduced him to the notorious Gino Giorgetti, who was then only 38 years old. He soon became involved in the world of organized crime, innocently fixing up small amounts of paperwork here and there. He took up a normal job at an accounting firm to cover up his side work and effectively began to live two lives. The Giorgettis showed him everything, from shooting handguns to properly living the good life. Despite his less than savory lifestyle, Harold still attended services at his local synagogue and was set up with a neighborhood girl, Ruth Kaminsky. Ruth repeatedly rejected him at first, but he eventually grew on her. They married in the summer of his 26th year. The couple tried for 7 years to have a child, and Ruth finally gave birth to a son. Ferris remained their only child, and grew to idolize his father. Though Ruth is vaguely aware of Harold's criminal endeavours, she turns a blind eye for the good of the family (and a nice fur coat or two).
