托马斯·弗朗西斯·威尔逊

托马斯出生于宾夕法尼亚的费城，并在韦恩长大。进入Radnor High School高中后，他加入戏剧表演课程，成为辩论社的主席（其队友David Brooks是后来的专栏作家）操作学校乐队的低音喇叭。大学时，他在Arizona State University学习政治。托马斯的表演生涯的正式开始是在学习时。当时他是乐队The Bob & Tom Show的赞助者。

1984年，托马斯在 NBC的Knight Rider里扮演一个小人物。真正的辉煌是他扮演回到未来系列中的毕夫.天南。托马斯的喜剧天赋让人们对这个角色“乐于去讨厌”。当回到未来打算拍成三部曲时，托马斯也被邀请到随后的2部里扮演毕夫的孙子和爷爷。他在片中著名的台词有： "Hello! Hello, McFly! Anybody home?"、"What are you looking at, Butthead?"、"Say hi to your mom for me"、 "Why don't you make like a tree and get out of here"。在每一部回到未来中，他总是作为一个冲进一堆粪肥的悲惨形象结束。

这一时期，托马斯也在Action Jackson扮演过警察角色。
