Joel Gretsch plays Tom Baldwin, one of the main characters in The 4400. He is married to Willam Shatner's daughter Melanie. They married in 1999. They have two daughters, Kaya and Willow.

Although not a newcomer to science fiction, he was a little reluctant to play a character on The 4400 as he had just done a sci-fi mini-series (Taken - a Steven Spielberg project for the SciFi channel). Gretsch was in another Steven Spielberg project, Minority Report.

Gretsch studied acting at the Guthrie Theater in Minneapolis before moving to Los Angeles in 1989. His stage work includes roles in Molière's Tartuffe and John Patrick Shanley's Danny and the Deep Blue Sea.

He started his television work in the early 90's, appearing in episodes of Married... with Children, Melrose Place and Saved by the Bell: The New Class. Since then he has appeared in episodes of JAG, Silk Stalkings, CSI: Miami and NCIS. He also played Capt./Maj./Col. Owen Crawford in the Steven Spielberg produced 2002 sci-fi miniseries Taken.

Gretsch has also had minor roles in a number of films including The Legend of Bagger Vance (2000), Minority Report (2002), and The Emperor's Club (2002).
