Jim Hanks

James Mathew "Jim" Hanks is an American actor, voice artist, director, producer, cinematographer, and camera operator. He is the younger brother of Tom Hanks and uncle of Colin Hanks.
For Disney, he is the voice of Woody in the Disney/Pixar Toy Story franchise when his brother is unavailable, with Woody being one of two roles that the brothers share. He also voiced Captain Wilson in the Milo Murphy's Law episode "The Note" and Murray the Muffin Man in Goldie & Bear.
Jim Hanks was born in Shasta County, California. He is the son of Janet Marylyn (née Frager) and itinerant cook Amos Mefford Hanks. Hanks is also the youngest brother of fellow actor Tom Hanks and entomologist Larry Hanks, but they were not raised together. After their parents divorced, Jim went to Red Bluff, California with his mother while older siblings Tom, Larry, and Sandra remained with their father. After college, he lived in Sacramento working as a waiter. The agent who employed his actress wife Karen Praxel as a receptionist encouraged him to get into acting. After he took acting lessons, he moved to Los Angeles in 1992 and began his career with roles in B-movies and commercial voice-overs.
