Henry Jackson Thomas, Jr. (born September 9, 1971) is an American actor and musician. He has appeared in over 40 films and is best known for his role as Elliott Taylor in Steven Spielberg's E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982). He is also known for his roles in films such as Cloak & Dagger (1984), Legends of the Fall (1994), and Gangs of New York (2002). Among Star Wars fans, he is well known as the narrator of three Star Wars: X-Wing books: Rogue Squadron, Wedge's Gamble, and The Krytos Trap.
Thomas was born an only child in San Antonio, Texas, the son of Carolyn L. (née Davis), a homemaker, and Henry Jackson Thomas, a hydraulic machinist. He attended East Central High School in San Antonio and Blinn College in Brenham. Thomas is of Welsh descent.
Aged nine, Thomas had already been in one film, Raggedy Man, when he auditioned for E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial. He won the part by giving a genuinely tearful performance, during which he had drawn upon the trauma of having seen his pet dog being killed by a neighbor’s dog. The film’s success exceeded expectations, and Thomas was troubled by the sometimes extreme reaction of the public.

Thru the door... one fine morn
On its back... ears hung
Forty pounds of feet and tongue
Ooh-wee my dear Henry
Dig the dog the cat dragged in
Ooh-wee my dear Henry
Dig the dog the cat dragged in
Can't fight... won't bite
Has bugs... eats rugs
Smells flowers... sleeps hours
Growing like a dinosaur
Ooh-wee my dear Henry
Dig the dog the cat dragged in
Ooh-wee my dear Henry
