He is also one of the most popular after dinner speakers in the country. Tom was born in Bootle, Merseyside. His father was a docker and it was in Liverpool that Tom became a schoolmaster. Whilst working as a maths teacher and assistant headmaster at St Joan of Arc School in Bootle he developed his unique comedy routines. In actual fact, the school’s headmaster had a lot to do with the progress of Tom’s career in comedy. When his pupils showed very little interest in the academic side of mathematics, the headmaster told him, ‘Never mind the algebra and logarithms — just remember you are saving souls’ For several years Tom O’Connor lived a double life — teaching his pupils by day and entertaining club audiences by night. His reputation spread throughout showbusiness and it soon became obvious that he would have to make a decision about his future career. ‘I was working very late at night, sometimes getting home at three or four o’ clock in the morning’, says Tom. ‘I had to be up at seven for school. So I had to decide whether to give up teaching in order to concentrate on a full – time showbusiness career... or forget the entertainment industry altogether in favour of school. Actually it wasn’t much of a gamble to take, for when I had twelve months engagements in my diary, I took the plunge. In 1974, Tom hung up his cap and gown for good to become a professional entertainer. He hasn’t looked back since. Tom is in constant demand for corporate functions both here and abroad and his client's list includes many multi-national companies where his ability to mix with and relate to people from every station in life from the M.D. to the tea lady coupled with his hilarious and scrupulously clean material has placed him firmly at the top of the Premier division of after dinner speakers.
