Tim first became involved in acting in August of 1996 after being dared by his coworkers to audition for a local community theater production of Dracula. He auditioned and received the role of Mr. Renfield, the fly eating paranoid schizophrenic. It was during the rehearsal period of the production that Tim received acting advice from legendary Oscar winning actor Gregory Peck, who was visiting Portland, Maine as part of his one-man tour, An Evening With Gregory Peck. Mr. Peck told Tim to "immerse yourself in your role. Find something in common between yourself and your character and before you know it you will become your character." Since then Tim has become known as an accomplished character stage actor after having played a very wide range of roles. Roles Tim has performed are Officer Bainbridge in You Have The Right To Remain Dead, President Franklin Roosevelt in Windham Center Stage Theater's production of Annie.

The play made it's premiere at Windham Center Stage Theater in March 2001 to public and critical acclaim.

Sanford Maine Stage Theater also produced the play again to much acclaim in the summer of 2002.
