01Early life
Baker has appeared in TV adverts since he was in kindergarten. During primary school, he took keyboard lessons.
02Career
Baker has appeared in several TV movies including The Society Murders, Underbelly and The King. He also starred in the 2006 Tropfest Film Festival top 16 finalist Goggles.
In 2014, Baker left Neighbours to concentrate on his studies. He has since made brief returns in 2015, 2017 and 2019. He again reprised the role for the Neighbours “finale” in 2022, and also returned in 2023 for the opening episodes of the series revival.
A keen chef, Baker has said that if he doesn't succeed in acting he would like to appear on Ready Steady Cook. In light of this, he temporarily produced a cooking series documented on Snapchat titled Shake and Bake with Morgan Baker, that ran from 2014 to 2015, before experiencing a hiatus and returning in 2016. The theme song was composed by musician Oliver Ryan.
In July 2018, Baker appeared as the Generation Z guest competitor in season 5 of game show Talkin' 'Bout Your Generation.
