Actor Bio
Thomas R. Baker has been an educator in the meteorology and mathematics fields for 20 plus years, a military person (3 branches) for 12 years and a voice impersonator. He practices his monologues incessantly, often creating new voices and accents to bring his improvisational techniques to fruition. Tom brings humor, reliability and hard work to any part of acting he engages in. Given a part, either background or principal, Tom will research the part thoroughly and will have props, speech, and mannerisms to make it as realistic as possible.
