Decimus or Didius Haterius Agrippa was the son of impressive orator and senator Quintus Haterius. Agrippa was tribune in 15 and vetoed proposals; was consul in 22 and later senator. Agrippa at one time strongly urged the Emperor Tiberius to nominate a limited amount of political candidates from each family. He died in 32, as a victim of Tiberius' reign of terror.

Tacitus describes him as a "somnolent creature". He married Domitia (aunt of Nero), daughter of Antonia Major and Lucius Domitius Ahenobarbus (consul 16 BC). Their only child was the future consul Quintus Haterius Antoninus.
