Thomas Magnum
Thomas Magnum is the main character on the American television series Magnum, P.I. created by Donald P. Bellisario and Glen A. Larson. The titular private investigator was originally portrayed by actor Tom Selleck from 1980 to 1988, and later by Jay Hernandez in a reboot developed by Peter M. Lenkov.
Magnum is a former naval officer, turned private investigator and "beach bum" in Hawaii.
Despite irregular employment, he manages to secure a cushy job and live a comfortable existence as a security expert on the estate of celebrity author Robin Masters. The job perks included use of the guest house on Masters' Hawaii estate "Robin's Nest" and his red Ferrari 308 GTS in exchange for quality control of the estate security. This often puts him in conflict with the estate's more responsible and serious majordomo, Higgins.
In the course of the series, Magnum and his friends (former Vietnam comrades, Rick Wright and T.C. Calvin) become involved, not only in typical private investigator cases, but also a wide variety of adventures involving espionage, covert operations, paramilitary escapades, and "lifestyles of the rich and famous".
Often appearing in khaki pleated shorts or blue jeans, an Aloha shirt, Sperry boat shoes or white Puma Easy Rider Sneakers, ankle socks, and a battered baseball cap, Magnum was originally envisioned as a James Bond type character but, at Selleck's request, was made into more of an average "everyman" with numerous character flaws.
Thomas Sullivan Magnum IV is around forty years old during the original series, although a variety of birthdates are given in at least 5 episodes, ranging from August 1944 to February 1947.
Magnum was born in Detroit but raised in the Tidewater region of Virginia. Both his father and grandfather were naval officers.
Magnum's father was a Naval Aviator killed in the Korean War when Magnum was only five. In the show, one of Magnum's most valued possessions is his father's Rolex GMT Master aviator's wristwatch. After Magnum's father's death, his mother Katherine married Frank Peterson. They had a son Joey, who died while serving in Vietnam.
