Personal Life
In 2005, Dinklage married Erica Schmidt, a theatre director. In 2011, they had their first child, a daughter.
When asked about his height in a 2003 interview, he said: "When I was younger, definitely, I let it get to me. As an adolescent, I was bitter and angry and I definitely put up these walls. But the older you get, you realize you just have to have a sense of humor. You just know that it's not your problem. It's theirs." Dinklage is a vegetarian and lives with his wife and daughter in Upstate New York. Dinklage supports Farm Sanctuary and has served as the spokesperson for the organization's Walk for Farm Animals.
