Tony, a modern day renaissance man, was born in Birmingham, Alabama to a family of three children. His parents, Thomas Williams, a Baptist Deacon, core maker, and entrepreneur, and Gloria Williams, a strong and gifted woman, instilled in him a sense of generosity and determination from a young age.
Growing up, Tony was a multi-talented individual who excelled in various fields. He played multiple sports, instruments, and even assisted in surgery during his high school years. This well-rounded education prepared him for his future endeavors.
After receiving a Bachelor of Science degree in Pre-Medicine/Chemistry from Auburn University, Tony moved to Atlanta on a Production contract with a three-man singing group. He eventually made his way to the Nashville stage scene, where he honed his skills and gained experience.
Tony's passion for acting led him to complete training at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts. During his time at the academy, he was seen on stage in various roles, including Othello and Treat from Lyle Kessler's "Orphans".
Since then, Tony has appeared in several TV and film projects. He played the role of the first officer to attempt to capture Bryan Mills in the third part of the popular Taken franchise.
