Funny man Tim Conway was born on December 15th, 1933 in Willoughby, Ohio, to Sophia (Murgoiu) and Daniel Conway, a pony groomer. He was a fraternity man at Bowling Green State University, served in the army, and started his career working for a radio station.
Conway got into comedy when he started writing and performing comedy skits between morning movies on CBS. Later, 罗斯·玛丽 "discovered" him and he became a regular performer on The Steve Allen Plymouth Show (1956). However, Conway would not earn true fame until starring as "Ensign Charles Parker" on McHale's Navy (1962). Conway sought further success in several shows that were failures, including the embarrassingly short-lived, Turn-On (1969), with only one episode. The producers did not even want it back on after the commercial break! Even his own show, The Tim Conway Show (1970) flopped, with only 12 episodes. Conway starred in the Disney film, 三小福闯金关 (1975), and also the films, The Prize Fighter (1979) and 美国式的玩笑 (1981).
Conway became a comical performer on The Carol Burnett Show (1967), with characters such as "The Old Man" and "Mr. Tudball". Even though it is widely thought he was always a regular performer throughout the whole show, he only became a regular performer in 1975. He was a hysterical addition to the team and memorably made co-star 哈维·科曼 laugh on-screen live many times.
Conway continued comedic roles such as "Dorf", and also had many more television appearances and films.
Changed his first name to Tim, to avoid confusion with actor 汤姆·康威.
Comedienne 罗斯·玛丽 discovered him and arranged for him to audition for The Steve Allen Plymouth Show (1956). He so impressed Allen that Conway wound up with a regular spot on the show.
Has been called "the best second-banana in the business".
He became notorious on The Carol Burnett Show (1967) for making the cast members--especially co-star 哈维·科曼--break up with laughter during taping, while he remained in character. Unlike most shows, these bits were usually left in the routines when the episodes were aired.
His car's license plate reads "13 WKS", a reference to the fact that all of his solo television projects have been cancelled after 13 weeks.
Father of Tim Conway Jr., Corey Conway, Jaime Conway (aka "Jake"), Pat Conway, Seann Conway and Kelly Conway.
Received his Bachelor's degree in television and radio from Bowling Green State University in Bowling Green, Ohio. Was a member of Phi Delta Theta fraternity.
After he graduated from Bowling Green State University, he enlisted in the United States Army, where he served between 1956-1958.
