Tim Thomerson

Tim says that the only thing he didn't like about the experience of guest starring on Xena was his costume. In an interview he said said of it, "It was the most uncomfortable costume in the world. The show shoots in New Zealand, where it`s always summertime. On that side of the world, there`s a hole in the Ozone layer... Right under that hole is New Zealand, with the hottest sun in the world. And underneath this sun, I`m wearing spandex pants, as well as leather shoes and a top made out of rubber, leather and metal!"But the costume designers said that if he ever returned to the show (which he sadly didn't) they'd adjust it so that it would be less uncomfortable for him.

Tim describes himself as a journeyman actor, because he's gotten quite a bit of work over the years, but none that made him a household name. Over the course of his career, he's traveled to Mexican jungles, the slums of Manila and in Bangkok. In Air America he worked in on the Burmese border for about three months. He's also worked in Montreal, Italy, Rumania, and Africa, as well as all over the US.

Tim won his first film role, in A Wedding, after director Robert Altman saw him doing his stand-up act on an episode of The Midnight Special.
