Thomas F. Harris (Tom) was born in Hollywood, Florida, and he started acting in high school musicals and one-act plays. He continued stage acting in college, where his last play was "Shenandoah" in 1981. At that point, Tom joined the Army for a 20-year stint.
After the Army and other jobs, amounting to a 32-year break from acting, Tom discovered a community theater company in Richmond Hill, GA, where he currently resides. He started right away with parts larger than those in high school and college, and he has been in most of their shows ever since. Tom even had a hand in directing and producing as well.
Tom got into film acting by getting into "SpongeBob: A Sponge Out of Water" as an extra. He discovered that the film school in Savannah (SCAD) was always looking for actors, and so took many roles in student films - some of them as leads. He has been in support roles for feature and TV shows, such as "Greg" in "Odie: Based on the Odyssey by Homer," as "Peter" in "Living the Dream" (Season 1, episode 2), and as "Junkyard Manager" in "Meant to be Broken."
Tom also worked as producer for the short film "Assorted," which won Best Film at the 48-Hour Film Project in Savannah, GA, and all films created by Irish Pizza Productions, such as "Perfect Match."
