T.J. McCormack
- Actor
T.J. McCormack started his career in showbiz while still attending high
school in 1986, following his calling as a stand-up comedian. He spent
several years honing his craft while driving a taxi. Eventually, he
ended up working cruise ships, where he met wife,
Andi McCormack, who is a singer and
dancer from Liverpool, England. Before long, T.J. landed in Los
Angeles, and found success quite quickly. Within a few months, he was
touring the country and working Las Vegas, performing with
Céline Dion,
The Beach Boys,
Paul Anka, among others. T.J. hosted the 1999
incarnation of Woodstock, standing on a stage in front of 250,000
people, introducing such acts as
Elvis Costello,
Kid Rock,
Willie Nelson and The
Red Hot Chili Peppers. In 2000, he
co-starred in a film festival champion,
For Uncle Manny (2002).
In 2002, he was cast in a Carsey-Werner-Mandabach television pilot for
ABC, which alas was not picked up. It's not if, but when T.J. will
become a household name, and he attributes that to the support of his
wife and entire family.
