He was an actor and producer, known for "Arach and his Friend Nid" (1973), "Fright Night" (1970) and "Strange Tales of Science Fiction" (1961). He passed away on 27 January 2009 in Alhambra, California, USA. Thomas was the long time studio announcer for Los Angeles television station KHJ-TV channel 9.
