Tahmoh Penikett, a commanding 6ft 3 (190.5 cm) Canadian actor, leverages his towering height to embody strong, imposing characters in sci-fi television.
Born May 20, 1975, in Whitehorse, Yukon, Canada, his stature enhanced his breakout role as the rugged pilot Helo in Battlestar Galactica, where he stood out among the cast, and as the relentless FBI agent Paul Ballard in Dollhouse.
Penikett's height contributes to his versatile screen presence in action-packed roles across series like Continuum.
