Mizutani Yutaka
- Name: Mizutani Yutaka
- Native name: 水谷豊
- Also Known as: みずたに ゆたか
- Nationality: Japanese
- Gender: Male
- Born: July 14, 1952
- Age: 72
Mizutani was raised from the age of 8 in Tokyo, Japan. He started acting at the age of 12 when a neighbor introduced him to a children's acting school in the area. When he discovered that going to an acting school wasn't the same as meeting the people he admired on TV, he wanted to quit, but by that time, he had been selected to play a small role in 'Vampire', a television movie being filmed by Fuji Television. This role launched his reluctant career, and though he purposely took several years off work to try studying, his failure to get into university urged him to continue in the acting business.
It was after the age of 20 when his career as an actor finally took off. His first major drama was in 1974, called Kizu Darake no Tenshi.
In addition to acting, his agency also encouraged him to put out music albums starting in 1977, all of which sold very well. His last album, "Time Traveler", was released in 2009.
He was married to an American actress by the name of Miki MacKenzie, but they divorced soon afterwards. He is now married to ex-pop-idol Ran Ito from the 1970s singing group Candies. He has one daughter, the actress Shuri.
