Jay Baker

Jay Baker started entertaining people professionally at the age of seventeen as a musical stage performer and soon found himself moving to Los Angeles where he spent the next two decades as a working actor. Eagle-eyed viewers will recognize Jay's appearances on The Dukes of Hazzard (1979), Baywatch (1989) and Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (1993), as well as other popular television series of the 80s and 90s. He's also featured in the cult classic films April Fool's Day (1986) and Shag (1989). In 2001, after moving his family from California back to his native Tennessee, Jay looked for a way to combine his skills as a carpenter and handyman with his professional pursuits in television. That effort paid off when Jay was booked as an on-air carpenter for DIY Network's Emmy-nominated home improvement program, "Warehouse Warriors". Sticking with a formula that works, Jay went on to host a number of other home improvement programs including "Build and Outdoor Kitchen", Floors, Doors & Window
