Tim Matheson started his Hollywood career when he was just 13. He played the role of Roddy Miller in Robert Young’s CBS nostalgia comedy series titled Window on Main Street in the years 1961-1962. In the yeas in 1962 to 1963, he also appeared in some of the episodes in the series Leave It to Beaver. In the following year, Matheson played the voice of the lead character in the Johnny Quest animated series.

Since then, his success spiraled, and he subsequently ventured into voice acting. His memorable performance was as the smooth-talking Eric Stratton in the 1978 comedy film National Lampoon’s Animal House. He also had other well-known roles such as Vice President John Hoynes in the political drama The West Wing. In recent years, Matheson has worked as a director of many television series. He directed the pilot episodes of The Good Guys, Covert Affairs, and Criminal Behavior. Good to know he’s still living the dream and is miles away from bankruptcy.
