Later Years and Death
Harman displayed a remarkable amount of energy into his 80s, staying active by playing golf and engaging in various other hobbies. He remained involved in the day-to-day management of Harman-Kardon until formally retiring on his 88th birthday in August 2006 and after turning 90 in 2008 remarked "I don't feel much different than I did at 70. Maybe a little bit, but nothing has significantly diminished."
Harman died on April 12, 2011, in Washington D.C. at the age of 92 of complications from acute myeloid leukemia.
