Thomas Harman was one of several sons of Richard James Strachan Harman, a leading Canterbury pioneer. He attended Christ's College, Christchurch. He worked as a solicitor, first in partnership in the firm Maude and Harman, then after 1909 on his own.[1] In 1924 he formed a partnership with his son Annesley, T. D. Harman and Son.[2]

A middle-order batsman, Harman made his highest score in Canterbury’s match against Wellington in 1891-92, when, captaining the team, he scored 15 and 65, Canterbury’s highest score in the match.[3] His brothers Richard and Annesley also played first-class cricket for Canterbury.
