Tobo! You know him as Ned Ryerson in GROUNDHOG DAY — Bing!
But also as Mr. Bates in FREAKY FRIDAY & FREAKIER FRIDAY, the amnesiac Sammy Jankis in Chris Nolan’s MEMENTO, and “Captain of the Guard” in SPACEBALLS.
He’s worked with legendary film directors like Ridley Scott in THELMA & LOUISE, Michael Mann in THE INSIDER, Jonathan Demme in SWING SHIFT (starring Kurt Russell & Goldie Hawn!), and alongside icons Robert Redford in SNEAKERS, Sharon Stone in BASIC INSTINCT, and Garfield in GARFIELD.
And you’ve definitely seen Tobo on TV, with recurring roles in GLEE, CALIFORNICATION, SILICON VALLEY, THE GOLDBERGS, HEROES, COMMUNITY and DEADWOOD, and memorable appearances on SEINFELD and as “Merle” on THE SIMPSONS.
Tobo also has a podcast, “The Tobolowsky Files”, and has authored 3 books: The Dangerous Animals Club, Cautionary Tales, and My Adventures With God. He’s done Voice Acting for video games and animation. And can even tell you how the band RADIOHEAD got their name (hint: Tobo!!)
