Tom Hanks is an American actor and filmmaker who has had an extensive career in film, television and stage. Hanks made his professional acting debut on stage, playing Grumio in a 1977 Great Lakes Theater production of The Taming of the Shrew.[1] He made his film debut with a minor role in the 1980 horror film, He Knows You're Alone.[2] In the same year, Hanks appeared in the television series Bosom Buddies, a role that led to guest appearances on several shows, including Happy Days with Ron Howard. Howard cast him in his first leading role in the Ron Howard-directed fantasy romantic comedy, Splash.[3] His breakthrough role was in Penny Marshall's age-changing comedy, Big, for which he garnered his first nomination for the Academy Award for Best Actor.[4][5]

In 1993, Hanks starred with Meg Ryan in the Nora Ephron-directed romantic comedy, Sleepless in Seattle. Later that year, he starred in the drama Philadelphia as a gay lawyer with AIDS fighting discrimination in his law firm.[6] For his performance, Hanks earned his first Academy Award for Best Actor.[7] He followed with the 1994 romantic comedy-drama, Forrest Gump, winning a consecutive second Academy Award for Best Actor (the first actor since Spencer Tracy in 1938 to achieve this feat).[8] In 1995, he played astronaut Jim Lovell in the Howard-directed historical drama Apollo 13, and voiced Sheriff Woody in the animated film Toy Story (a role that he would reprise in four sequels).

Hanks made his debut as a director and screenwriter with the 1996 musical comedy, That Thing You Do!.[9] Later that year, he and Gary Goetzman founded the production company Playtone.[10] In 1998, Hanks executive produced the Emmy Award-winning docudrama miniseries From the Earth to the Moon, and starred in the Steven Spielberg-directed epic war film, Saving Private Ryan, which earned him his fourth nomination for Best Actor at the Academy Awards.[11][12] Later that year, he reunited with Ryan and Ephron for the romantic comedy, You've Got Mail. In 2000, Hanks starred in Cast Away, earning the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor – Motion Picture Drama, and a fifth nomination for Academy Award for Best Actor.[13][14] In 2001, he executive produced the Emmy Award-winning World War II mini-series Band of Brothers and the romantic comedy My Big Fat Greek Wedding.[15] The following year, at 45 years, Hanks became the youngest person to receive the lifetime achievement award from the American Film Institute.[16]

In 2006, he played Professor Robert Langdon in Howard's The Da Vinci Code, an adaptation of the best-selling book of the same name. In 2008, he executive-produced the musical comedy, Mamma Mia!, and the Emmy Award-winning mini-series, John Adams.[17] Hanks made his Broadway debut in 2013 in Ephron's play Lucky Guy, which earned him a nomination for the Tony Award for Best Actor in a Play.[18] He portrayed television personality Fred Rogers in the 2019 drama A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood, for which he garnered nominations for Best Supporting Actor at the Academy Awards, British Academy Film Awards, and Golden Globe Awards.[19][20][21]
