Harrison Thomas
Harrison Thomas was born in Santa Monica, California. After testing out of high school at age 14 to pursue music, he attended the Musicians Institute in Hollywood, where he was classically trained in voice and guitar. He was getting offers from record labels and offers to go on tour. He was then involved in a near-fatal crash while driving to record his EP, "Fly in the Grease." He broke his back, several ribs, and had to relearn how to walk. After a year of physical therapy, he began to play music again. But as he stated in an interview for Voyage LA, "I tried to make music again, and without being maudlin about it... it wasn't the same." He tried a few other occupations before stumbling into a Meisner acting class. He later trained with a few notable teachers such as Martin Landau and the famous acting coaches Sandra Seacat and Greta Seacat.
He started his professional career with the unaired pilot Locke and Key (2011), and then quickly began working on television shows like House (2011), Fringe (2012), Criminal Minds (2012), CSI (2013), Silicon Valley (2014), Lucifer (2016), and Banshee (2013-2014) and most recently Better Call Saul (2017-2018). He has appeared in the films The Stanford Prison Experiment (2015), which won the Alfred P. Sloan award at the Sundance Film Festival, 600 Miles (2015), which won Best First Feature at the Berlin International Film Festival, and Other People's Children (2015), which won the Best of Festival Award at the Columbia Gorge International Film Festival. He also starred in the short film All These Voices (2015), which won the Student Academy Award at the AFI fest.
He started Thomas Productions in 2018 and has several projects in development.
