Biografía
Chevy Chase first came to national prominence as a writer and performer with the original cast of NBC’s “Saturday Night Live,” for which he won two Emmy Awards.
Chevy’s first starring role in a feature film was in the comedy-thriller FOUL PLAY with Goldie Hawn. Other films he has starred in include: CADDY SHACK; SEEMS LIKE OLD TIMES; NATIONAL LAMPOON’S VACATION; FLETCH; NATIONAL LAMPOON’S EUROPEAN VACATION; SPIES LIKE US; THE THREE AMIGOS; FUNNY FARM; CADDYSHACK II; FLETCH LIVES; NATIONAL LAMPOON’S CHRISTMAS VACATION; MEMOIRS OF AN INVISIBLE MAN; COPS AND ROBBERSONS; MAN OF THE HOUSE; VEGAS VACATION; and SNOW DAY.
In 1992, Harvard’s Hasty Pudding Theatricals, the nation’s oldest undergraduate dramatic group, named Chevy its “Man of the Year.”
Chevy began his career in comedy as a writer and performer for “Channel One”, a local New York underground revue that satirized television. “Channel One” later became the basis for the film THE GROOVE TUBE. He has written for Lily Tomlin and the Smothers Brothers, and earned a Writers Guild of America Award for writing “Alan King’s Energy Crisis, Rising Prices And Assorted Vices” TV special. In addition, he won an Emmy Award for co-writing “The Paul Simon Special.”
Chevy resides in New York with his wife, Jayni and their three daughters. He moved the family back to the Northeast a decade ago to be continually accessible to the needs of his three daughters, simply being a “dad” as the kids have grown through changing seasons, hormones, and schools.
