Personal life
Thornton is the son of Dr. Robert Donald Thornton, an international authority on the Scottish poet Robert Burns who taught English at Harvard University for 45 years. He graduated from Hamilton College and Yale Drama School and studied at Lee Strasberg's Actors' Studio.
Thornton met singer Cyndi Lauper on the set of the film Off and Running. They married in November 1991 and have a son, Declyn Wallace Thornton (born 1997).
In 2005, the New York Court of Appeals delivered a ruling in favor of Thornton in the case Thornton v. Baron, a decision that has since been viewed as a milestone in New York's real estate sector, particularly concerning rent stabilization laws in the state.
