In 1998, Tom was one of the lead actors in the film Gravesend, produced by Oliver Stone. The film became an indie-cult favorite. When this film failed to make him into a household name, Tom decided to learn as many facets of the movie business as he could. Very soon, he realized that the single most important aspect to learn is raising the money necessary to shoot a film. The problem was, no person or no book could tell Tom how to do this! So, over the course of 8 years, he created his own method.
Tom first wrote and produced The Attic, a thriller directed by Mary Lambert (director of Pet Sematary I & II), and starring John Savage, Jason Lewis, Elisabeth Moss, and Tom.
Tom then wrote and produced The Alphabet Killer, a psychological thriller directed by Rob Schmidt (director of Wrong Turn). The film stars Eliza Dushku, Cary Elwes, Academy Award Winner Timothy Hutton, Michael Ironside, and Tom in one of the lead roles.
Most recently, Tom wrote and produced Love and Dancing, a dance film/romantic comedy directed by Rob Iscove (director of She’s All That). The film stars Amy Smart & Tom, along with Billy Zane, Betty White, and Rachel Dratch.
Tom is also a nationally known motivational speaker. His message of “Making Positive Choices” has reached over 100,000 students.
Tom has appeared in principal roles on Law & Order, Third Watch, Kidnapped, The Siege (with Denzel Washington) and Anger Management.
