Tom Arnold began doing stand-up in 1983, and met Roseanne Barr soon afterwards, when she saw his act. Within a few years, Tom would move to Los Angeles to marry Roseanne and begin a fruitful, yet tempestuous collaboration that would last the four years of their marriage. Although several solo projects like “The Jackie Thomas Show” didn’t quite catch on, it was Tom’s appearance as Arnold Schwarzenegger’s sidekick in the James Cameron blockbuster “True Lies,” that re-ignited his now busy film career.
