I'm not gay but I'd say Titus is a fairly attractive guy. Anyway, I just started watching Bosch and liking it so far. He looks like a strong 5'10 guy in it, id say about 5'10.5.

He is the right height for us small girls. I am 5'1". As you age your spine compresses and you lose height. I was 5'3". Doctor can't lie what scale says.

In the books, Harry Bosch is about five foot nine or ten, so Welliver is the right size for the part. Before I ever saw the TV show (which is excellent) I read most of the books, and cast Steve McQueen, as he appeared in BUllit as Bosch. Welliver is not a handsome man, as Bosch is sometimes described in the books, but he's absolutely bang-on perfect as the brave, dignified and honest Bosch otherwise.

Somewhere in the 5’10” range
179 peak
178 current a bit of height loss for a 58 year old

Zero chance to met him at any convention, rob? Really interested in his height. No small appearance on screen, but not tall either. Therefore i would agree with you, but for sure, since i like this actor i would like him to be my heigh 1.76m.

Editor RobSome organisers never seem to bother with certain guests...but I wouldn't rule this guy out entirely as he was going to do a con but had to cancel.

OK we've quickly gone through three seasons of Bosch, great show, great actor.
But I'm downgrading my guess from 5'9" to 5'8"

We've been binge-watching Bosch. There's not a single time where he looks taller than average.

He can certainly look barely 5'10 on Bosch at times, and in fact 5'10 flat is probably a better shout than 5'10.5, but 5'7-5'8 is bogus.

5'7" to 5'8" MAX.
I have been re watching the TV series "Life" that starred Damien Lewis. In one scene in episode 11 of Season 1 Titus and Damien are in a bank talking face to face and in one single long shot you can see both men full length. Damien is at least 3" - 4" taller wearing normal heeled shoes than Titus wearing at least a visible 3" - 4" heel cowboy boot. I've scoured the interwebs for a pic to no avail. Mr. Welliver benefits by looking 5'10-11" but I wouldn't be surprised if he was really 5'7" just like Elsa from Maine said.

I know, she's the reason why i say i'm not sure he'd be under 5'10... I remember they had a scene together (she was barefoot, he had shoes on) and he looked maybe 5 inches taller... I never commented on her height but do you think she's a genuine 5'6? In 24, even if she wore heels, Kiefer still looked comfortably taller, as far as i remember! Jamie i thought he could pass for a genuine 6 footer in The Wire but i don't know if he'd be over that mark! He had a scene with 6'2.5 Idris Elba and i'm sure he was at least a couple inches shorter! His 6'2 claim is quite optimistic!
Do you think a 178-9 guy would look so "short", though? I don't know, he's a tricky guy!
He also has at least 3 good inches on the young girl who plays her daughter and you have her at 5'8... Is she really 5'8, though? She has a picture with Paul Wesley on her Instagram and she looks well over 2 inches shorter than him! Again, she looks noticeably taller than Sarah Clarke (who probably isn't the full 5'4) on the show...

Editor Rob I'd like to see him and his 6ft 5 son, if he is really that tall.
I doubt Annie is outwith the 5ft 5.5-6 range from seeing her.
I've not seen this This episode, but most agree macht is a solid 6ft range, he might make Titus look 178-9 in it.

Rob, i've just finished to watch the second season of Bosch and i agree with these guys who say he looks well over an inch shorter than Jamie Hector...
Honestly, i'd say he generally looks a couple inches shorter than him, sometimes even more 2.5! I cannot buy him being only an inch shorter than Jamie, they NEVER look so close!!!
Actually, Titus looks shorter than most of the guys on the show, i would have never guessed him so tall (5'11) but more in the shortish/average range!
Now, i'm not sure he'd be under 5'10 but he looks nowhere near 5'11 on Bosch to me! He also looks AT LEAST 4 inches shorter than Lance Reddick...
He does claim 6' on Twitter: Click Here
Maybe he's just a "short looking" 5'10...
His colleague Jamie Hector actually did claim to be 6'2 on Twitter: Click Here
He looks nowhere near that tall, though! Maybe Titus told him "I'm 6'" and Jamie thought "Then i must be 6'2" :P
Jamie himself looks a couple inches shorter than Lance...

Editor Rob it could be he is somewhere in 5ft 10-11 range, and hector a bit over 6ft, that might be more fair.
Not impossibly mid 50's to lose a fraction. He did have a brief scene in an early x-files, but with Duchovny wasn't the best angle, he looked shorter of course than David.
On agents of shield he had a scene with several of the crew, I would have probably said about 179cm range.
But Wersching is in that series and beside her, who I met, I can't see him looking less than that range.

I saw Titus a several years back in Maine. His father spent a lot of time here. Titus is about 5'7 maybe a stretch at 5'8. One great actor with an awfully sexy voice. Really great in Bosch.

The strange thing is he actually did look a comfortable 5'11 not more than 3-4 years ago, 5'11.25 looked a good shout, but in his more recent appearances on 'White Collar' and 'Bosch' - he looks shorter, very often 5'10.5 at best. He only just turned 54, but it looks like he could have lost a little.

He looks quite tall in the photo provided, but in Bosch he really doesn't look 181. Jamie Hector claims 6 ft, which seems to be accurate, and there seems to be a few inches between them. Even next to Shawn Hatosy, who's apparently 5'9, Titus looks around the same height; maybe slightly taller.

@Editor Rob: In nearly every scene he looks more than 0.75in shorter than Jamie Hector on Bosch. The difference usually looks more around 1.5in. I haven't seen too much of him, but he's 53, so a chance he's lost a little, if he ever was 5'11.25.

That episode of SVU was just on recently and, if anything in the first scene where they meet, it looked like Welliver might have marginally edged Meloni out, but it's possible that he was wearing chunkier work boots than Meloni's dress shoes.
