Leonard L. Thomas

It was the casting of Spike Lee's "School Daze" when Leonard answered the call of duty in the role of "Big Brother General Patton"! Landing this role created a whirlwind of success, with the garnering of seven additional starring roles in a series of Spike Lee Joints! Continuing in this vein, Mr. Thomas has appeared in over forty films - including such notable films as: "Malcolm X", "King of New York", "The Negotiator" and "Star Wars" - to name a few. In addition to Leonard's multi-faceted repertoire, Leonard has been immortalized, (as one of only three African Americans have), as a "Star Wars" action figure, figurine - sold worldwide. Embodying the name: "Roth-del Masona", can be found worldwide. From the beginnings - working with the renowned NEC (Negro Ensemble Company) under the prolific Douglas Turner Ward, this Howard University alumnus knows that: "The Best is Yet to Come", with God on his side!
