Early life
Baker was born on February 19, 1958 in Chicago, Illinois. He holds a B.S. in psychology from Loyola University Chicago and an M.S. in human services administration from Spertus Institute for Jewish Learning and Leadership in Chicago. He taught special education and played an office worker in OfficeMax commercials while working on his MS degree. In Chicago, he worked for the Board of Education, the Department of Public Health, and the Office of Cable and Communications.
Acting career
Baker moved to Los Angeles, California, in the late 1990s.
On the day he was called back to The Office, Baker had another audition. He was caught in traffic on his way to his Office audition, although producers assumed he had been in the toilet and thanked him for his patience. "I was kind of sweaty, my clothes were rumpled, and I was cranky," Baker later said. "The story was written in the way I was feeling at the time, and I let 'er rip." "You got the pilot,'" says the call two weeks later.
Stanley Hudson, a Baker's Office characterization, is a sales representative for the fictional Dunder Mifflin paper manufacturer who is often depicted as a stubborn, grouchy curmudgeon. His appearance was described as "a standout" on the program, and his monologue voice and steady demeanor helped him fight many of the other characters' off-the-wall appearances."Did I Stutter?"
Baker's character is the subject of the season 4, 2008; as with many supporting actors on The Office, some of Baker's scenes became famous to viewers. Stanley is rarely, but occasionally, treated to a "soft side"; in "Stairmageddon" (season 9, 2013), Baker plays a calmer, and then giddy, Stanley. Stanley says he is content to be living in retirement in Florida at the end of the series.He was a member of the Office cast of the National Theatre Association in the Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble category in 2007 and 2008.
"Why didn't he return?" Baker asked in December 2017, after several former Office actors expressed hope for a revival of the series, the Hollywood Reporter's Lesley Goldberg wrote of Baker. Baker hasn't appeared in any capacity since The Office's demise in 2013, according to Bustle, who said he was "plenty busy with his other creative pursuits." Baker launched a Kickstarter campaign in July 2020 to fund Uncle Stan's production, a proposed spin-off series of The Office focusing on Stanley as he moves to Los Angeles, California, to help his widowed nephew Lucky run his failing motorcycle repair/flower shop.
Baker appeared as a janitor at the Ted Nugent concert in 2001. Baker released the song "2 Be Simple" in November 2011 with accompanying music video starring Baker (credited as "Black Hugh Hefner") in a bathrobe dancing with scantily clad women. "Baker has announced a track that is expected to be the party anthem at all your yuletide throwdowns," wrote Jan Chaney of The Washington Post. Cameron Matthews dubbed the song "infectious" with lyrics that "completely [capture] the daydreams of a middle-aged man in crisis."
Baker was named principal Wentworth in Raven's Home; previously, he appeared in Scorpion and Life in Pieces. He appeared on the CMT series Still the King and in the films Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie (2017), in a voice role, and The Happytime Murders (2018). He appeared in a FileMaker Inc., a Apple Inc. subsidiary, as a farmer alongside former Office actors Paul Lieberstein and Kate Flannery. Baker appeared in a number of Honey Nut Cheerios commercials in 2020.
