Biography

Ryan Scott Thomas has had what some would call "many lives." Writer, Police Officer, Father, Coach, Teacher, Wrestler, but the one thing he has known his whole life is that he is an Actor. During his police career Ryan started acting on the side, and even had some of his writing work produced. Within weeks of leaving the police department Ryan was in New York studying acting and sharpening his skills.

In the past few years Ryan has worked in television in roles on Blue Bloods, New Amsterdam, The Blacklist, The Flight Attendant, Power: Book III, and had the honor of appearing in a scene with the great Al Pacino in Hunters. In early 2020 Ryan appeared on stage in a play that he wrote, inspired by his time as a police officer working with the community. He believes a strong sense of empathy has been the most important aspect of being both a police officer and an actor.

Most recently Ryan filmed a recurring role on David Simon's new HBO show, We Own This City (2022). He is honored and appreciative to be a part of this amazing project.
