As a writer, producer, and actor, TOM ARNOLD (Archie) has established himself with both television and film audiences worldwide, having won such awards as the Peabody Award for writing, and a Golden Globe for writing and producing.
Arnold can currently be seen hosting The Best Damn Sports Show Period on Fox Sports Net where he joins former major league baseball slugger John Kruk, former NBA All-Star John Salley and Ex- NFL Super Bowl Champion D’Marco Farr in this one-hour sports/entertainment television show combining the sports and comedy worlds in a unique “guy talk” format.
After first working with director Bartkowiak and producer Silver in the action film Exit Wounds opposite Steven Seagal and DMX, Cradle 2 the Grave re-teams Arnold with Bartkowiak and Silver.
Arnold began his career in comedy at the University of Iowa before moving to Minneapolis, where he won the Minneapolis Comedy Competition in 1988. He then moved to Los Angeles to write on the highly successful television series Roseanne before eventually serving as executive producer for the sitcom. He went on to star in three installments of his own HBO special entitled Tom Arnold: The Naked Truth, and then wrote, produced and starred in three of his own television series The Jackie Thomas Show, Tom and The Tom Show.
Arnold’s other film credits include Nine Months with Hugh Grant, Julianne Moore, and Robin Williams; James Cameron’s True Lies with Arnold Schwarzenegger; Hero with Dustin Hoffman; Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery with Mike Myers; and in Animal Factory, directed by Steve Buscemi, Arnold received great critical notice for his portrayal of a convict.
