Biography

Tom Wilson is a multifaceted creative artist whose professional career has spanned a wide range of artistic disciplines, expertly blending them to create a unique and personalized declaration of his life's work in the arts.

Throughout his life, Tom has been a man of fervent but private faith, and in recent years, he has been in high demand as a speaker at conferences and retreats, as well as an opportunity to record the music he began playing in church in the 1970s.

Tom has enjoyed a successful career as an actor, writer, and comedian for over 20 years, boasting a credit list of more than 50 films, television shows, and comedy specials, with appearances on talk shows alongside legendary hosts such as Johnny Carson, Jay Leno, David Letterman, Regis Philbin, and Kathie Lee Gifford.

As a voice-over actor, Tom has worked on dozens of animated series, including many episodes of Nickelodeon's SpongeBob SquarePants, released in 1999.

As a comedian, Tom has been a regular performer at the world-famous Improv and Comedy Store since his arrival in Hollywood, and his self-written one-man show, "Cowboy Tommy," enjoyed a series of sold-out engagements.

Tom continues to act in movies and television, and performs comedy and music at theaters across America.

As a writer and producer, Tom has written for prestigious literary magazines, as well as for Universal Studios, Disney, Fox, and Film Roman studios, and produced a groundbreaking series of debates for Canadian television called "The Seven Deadly Sins," which examined cultural values and the role of the arts within them.

As an avocation, Tom is a photographer and painter, with a photograph in the permanent collection of the California Museum of Photography and paintings on the walls of the guest bedrooms of many close personal friends, or as artists like to say, "in many private collections."

Actor, comedian, writer, musician, and artist - Tom Wilson has transcended the limitations of pop-cultural celebrity to become an artist of honesty, gravity, and grace.

Thomas Wilson is a graduate of Radnor high school in the suburbs of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where he was known for his comedic personality.
