UMD theater professor Tom Isbell was a darling of television producer Burt Metcalf (M*A*S*H) and went on to work in movies with the likes of Anne Bancroft and Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Then he left a career most young actors can only dream of ... because of an earthquake.
Seriously?
You can check out Tom's movie and television acting creds, including The Abyss, True Lies, Clear and Present Danger, and yes, The Commish, on his IMDB page.
