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!
