Hermann had brief stints on a variety of television shows that include the soap opera Guiding Light (1997–1998), the ABC Family show Beautiful People (2006) and the Lifetime original series Angela's Eyes (2006). Since 2002 he has had a recurring role as defense attorney Trevor Langan on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit.

He has made appearances in several commercials, such as the anti-tobacco "Fair Enough" ads, and has been the face for Persil ProClean detergent since the late 2010s.[8]

In 2006, he starred as Jeremy Glick in the feature film United 93.[9]

He also guested on 30 Rock during its first season and starred in ABC's mid-season replacement series Cashmere Mafia as Davis Draper. In 2011, he appeared in the Broadway play War Horse,[13] and made occasional appearances as Erin Reagan's ex-husband John "Jack" Boyle on Blue Bloods.[14][15][16]

From 2015 to 2021, he starred in Younger.[17] In March 2018, HarperCollins published Hermann's children's book If the S in Moose Comes Loose.[18] He was a guest actor in season 2 of And Just Like That....

Personal life

While appearing on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, Hermann met lead actress Mariska Hargitay, whom he married on August 28, 2004, in Santa Barbara, California.[19][20][21] They have a son, August, who was born in 2006.[22] In April 2011, Hargitay and Hermann adopted a baby girl, named Amaya, [20][23] and six months later in October 2011, the couple adopted a baby boy, named Andrew.
