Tom Wopat is currently starring in Tony-nominated musical A Catered Affair.  Before this, Wopat appeared as the lead in Chicago, and returned to Broadway in March for his first dramatic role there, starring alongside Alan Alda, Jeffrey Tambor and Liev Schreiber in David Mamet's Glengarry Glen Ross.

On his most recent album, 2005's Dissertation on the State of Bliss, Wopat delivers infectiously jazzy interpretations of Harold Arlen songs including "Accentuate The Positive", "Over The Rainbow", "Come Rain Or Come Shine" and "If I Only Had A Brain". "The performance is all about the song," says Wopat. "It's not about me. The singer's job is to establish the mood and tell the story of the song."

Wopat first started singing and dancing in high school musicals, and studied music at the University of Wisconsin before making his television debut in 1978. He starred in -- and directed several episodes of -- the popular "Dukes of Hazzard", playing Luke Duke in the show, which ran from 1979-1985. After the series ended, Wopat made his triumphant return to Broadway (Annie Get Your Gun), and continued to appear on television ("Cybill", "Home Improvement", and hosting his own show on TNN).

Wopat's recording career started in 1983 with his self-titled country album. Since then, he released six other country albums before the 2000 album, The Still of the Night, which introduced fans to his love of standards.
