Tom Lipinski

Tom Lipinski (born 25 June 1982) is an American actor, writer, director and producer known for many recurring television roles, and perhaps best known for his role as Trevor Evans on Suits.^[1][2]

Lipinski was an All-American athlete in high school but did not pursue it as a career. Lipinski's father Joseph hoped his son would enter into the medical profession, but Tom caught the acting bug for the performing arts in an experimental theater troupe while at Brown University, where he majored in history from 2000 to 2004. After earning a degree, Lipsinki explored experimental stage performance at The Theatre of the Two-Headed Calf in Rhode Island, among other venues.^[1]

Lipinski's first film role in The Wrestler (2008) was cut, after which he appeared in a few short films in 2009. Beginning in 2010, his career gained traction with a television debut in the Law & Order franchise (Law & Order and Law & Order: Criminal Intent), and the TV movie The Wonderful Maladys.^[1]

Prominent directors under which Lipsinki has worked include Jason Reitman, Steven Soderbergh, and Paolo Sorrentino.^[1]

Besides acting, Lipsinki has become a writer, director, and producer, making his directorial debut in Ben, a 2013 short film. In 2021, he co-created and produced twenty-one episodes of Gone South, a journalism podcast series that has investigated high-profile cases, such as the unsolved murder of a New Orleans Assistant District Attorney.^[1]

The podcast Gone South, which Lipinski co-created and produced, was given an Edward R. Murrow Award by the Radio Television Digital News Association in 2022.^[1][3]
