Our Host

George William Bailey was born in Port Arthur, Texas. He worked at local theater companies during the mid 1960s until his move to California in the 1970s. Here he began his work on such television series as Starsky and Hutch, CHiP’s, M*A*S*H, The Closer and Major Crimes. His most famous role will always be that of Captain Thaddeus Harris in Police Academy (1984).

Since his goddaughter was diagnosed with leukemia, he has worked voluntarily for the Sunshine Kids Foundation, organizing trips for young cancer sufferers. In 2001, he became the executive director of the foundation.

As host of two of our MM&M podcasts, G.W. enlivens the cases and engages the audience with his special brand of wit and wisdom.
