Paul Finley Zaloom (born 1951 in Garden City, Long Island) is a United States actor who gained fame on the television show Beakman's World.
A veteran performer and political satirist, Zaloom began his entertainment career with the Bread and Puppet Theater, an influential troupe specializing in self-invented, home-made theater. In his solo work, he has utilized an unique repertoire of skills, including found-object animation, in which he takes objects as varied as coffee pots and humidifiers and turns them into elements of political satire. While Zaloom has no background in science, his insatiable curiosity and improvisational style make up for it.
Zaloom has written, designed and performed eleven full length solo spectacles, including Fruit of Zaloom, Sick But True, and his latest, Mighty Nice.
