Thomas Edison?
No, not the light bulb king. Further south.
Thomas Woodrow Wilson
Thomas Wolfe. (He went home again?)

It is one of life’s eternal mysteries why anyone would use the middle name “Woodrow” in preference to… well… anything else.

Thanks, Mr Sippican. My other guess was Tom Waits.
Hah!
Hey, did you see Tom Waits press conference?
Make sure you watch the whole thing.
