Actor Jon Hamm, who came to fame starring as ad executive Don Draper on the AMC series “Mad Men," was named Tuesday as the 2025 Man of the Year by Harvard University’s Hasty Pudding Theatricals.

The theater group, which dates to 1844 and claims to be the world's third-oldest still operating, said Hamm will receive his Pudding Pot award at a celebratory roast Jan. 31. Afterwards, he will attend a performance of Hasty Pudding Theatricals’ 176th production, “101 Damnations.”
