His smooth-talking fraternity president, Eric "Otter" Stratton, would prove to be an indelible image that would follow the actor for the rest of his career. Director John Landis cast Matheson alongside John Belushi, Tom Hulce, and Karen Allen in the raunchy college comedy "National Lampoon's Animal House" (1978). What would become his signature role, though, would officially graduate the actor to adult roles. He worked steadily throughout the 1970s, including starring in the short-lived series "The Quest" (1976) with fellow former child star Kurt Russell. Back on television, he had recurring roles on the Westerns "The Virginian" (NBC, 1962-71) and "Bonanza" (NBC, 1959-73). He began finding traction as well on the big screen with supporting roles in "Divorce, American Style" (1967) and "Yours, Mine and Ours" (1968). He also worked as a voice actor, providing the original voice of the namesake character in "Johnny Quest" (ABC, 1964-65). He was soon making regular appearances on television, including on the hit sitcoms "Leave It to Beaver" (CBS/ABC, 1957-63) and "My Three Sons" (ABC/CBS, 1960-72). Born in the Los Angeles suburb of Glendale, he began his professional acting career in his early teens. American actor Tim Matheson used his natural charm to help craft an acting career that spanned decades.
