Born into a prominent New York family, Chase had a variety of jobs before moving into comedy and beginning acting with *National Lampoon*. He became a key cast member in the first season of *Saturday Night Live*, where his recurring *Weekend Update* segment soon became a staple of the show. As both a performer and writer, he earned three Primetime Emmy Awards out of five nominations.

Chase had his first leading film role in the comedy *Foul Play* (1978), earning two Golden Globe Award nominations. He is further known for his portrayals of Clark W. Griswold in five *National Lampoon's Vacation* films and Irwin "Fletch" Fletcher in both *Fletch* (1985) and *Fletch Lives* (1989). Other prominent titles include *Caddyshack* (1980), *Seems Like Old Times* (1980), *Spies Like Us* (1985), *Three Amigos* (1986), *Orange County* (2002), and *Hot Tub Time Machine* (2010). He has hosted the Academy Awards twice (1987 and 1988) and briefly had his own late-night talk show, *The Chevy Chase Show* (1993). He played the character Pierce Hawthorne on the NBC comedy series *Community* from 2009 to 2014.

## Early life

### Family

Cornelius Chase was born on October 8, 1943, in Lower Manhattan, New York, and grew up in Woodstock, New York. His father, Edward Tinsley "Ned" Chase (1919–2005), was a Princeton-educated Manhattan book editor and magazine writer. His mother, Cathalene Parker (*née* Browning; 1923–2005), was a concert pianist and librettist whose father, Admiral Miles Browning served as Rear Admiral Raymond A. Spruance's Chief of Staff on the aircraft carrier USS *Enterprise* (CV-6) at the Battle of Midway in World War II. Cathalene was adopted as a child by her stepfather, Cornelius Vanderbilt Crane, heir to The Crane Company, and took the name Catherine Crane. Chase's paternal grandfather was artist and illustrator Edward Leigh Chase, and his great-uncle was painter and teacher Frank Swift Chase. His maternal grandmother, Cathalene, was an opera singer who performed several times at Carnegie Hall.

Chase was named for his adoptive grandfather Cornelius Vanderbilt Crane, while the nickname "Chevy" was bestowed by his grandmother, derived from the medieval English ballad "The Ballad of Chevy Chase". As a descendant of the Scottish Clan Douglas, the name seemed appropriate to her. He is a 14th-generation New Yorker, and was listed in the *Social Register* at an early age. His mother's ancestors arrived in Manhattan starting in 1624—among his ancestors are New York City mayors Stephanus Van Cortlandt and John Johnstone; the Dutch Schuyler family, through his ancestor Gertrude Schuyler, the wife of Stephanus Van Cortlandt; John Morin Scott, General of the New York Militia during the American Revolution; Anne Hutchinson, dissident Puritan preacher and healer; and *Mayflower* passengers and signers of the Mayflower Compact from England, John Howland, and the Pilgrim colonist leader and spiritual elder of the Plymouth Colony, William Brewster. According to his brother John:

As a child, Chase vacationed at Castle Hill, the Cranes' summer estate in Ipswich, Massachusetts. Chase's parents divorced when he was four; his father remarried into the Folgers coffee family, and his mother remarried twice. He has stated that he grew up in an upper middle class environment and that his adoptive maternal grandfather did not bequeath any assets to Chase's mother when he died. In a 2007 biography, Chase stated that he was physically and psychologically abused as a child by his mother and stepfather, John Cederquist. Both of his parents died in 2005.

### Education and music

Chase was educated at Riverdale Country School, an independent day school in the Riverdale neighborhood of New York City, before being expelled. He ultimately graduated from the Stockbridge School, an independent boarding school in the town of Stockbridge, Massachusetts. He attended Haverford College during the 1962–1963 term, where he was noted for slapstick comedy and an absurd sense of physical humor, including his signature pratfalls and "sticking forks into his orifices." During a 2009 interview on the *Today* show, he ostensibly verified the oft-publicized urban legend that he was expelled for harboring a cow in his fourth floor room, although his former roommate David Felson asserted in a 2003 interview that Chase left for academic reasons. Chase transferred to Bard College in Annandale-on-Hudson, New York, where he studied a pre-med curriculum and graduated in 1967 with a Bachelor of Arts in English.

Chase did not enter medical school, which meant he was subject to the military draft. Chase was not drafted; when he appeared in January 1989 as the first guest of the just-launched late-night *The Pat Sajak Show*, he said he had convinced his draft board he deserved a 4-F classification by "falsely claiming, among other things, that he had homosexual tendencies."

Chase played drums with the college band The Leather Canary, headed by school friends Walter Becker and Donald Fagen. Chase has called the group "a bad jazz band"; Becker and Fagen later founded the successful group Steely Dan. Chase has absolute pitch. He played drums and keyboards for a rock band called Chamaeleon Church, which recorded one album for MGM Records before disbanding in 1969. To give the album a more soft-rock sound, producer Alan Lorber made several alterations in the mixing, including the muting of Chase's bass drum, and Chase was reportedly incensed when he heard the final mix. Before fame, Chase worked as a cab driver, truck driver, motorcycle messenger, construction worker, waiter, busboy, fruit picker, produce manager in a supermarket, audio engineer, salesman in a wine store, and theater usher.

## Career

### Early career

Chase was a member of an early underground comedy ensemble called Channel One, which he co-founded in 1967. He also wrote a one-page spoof on *Mission: Impossible* for *Mad* magazine in 1970 and was a writer for the short-lived *Smothers Brothers* TV show comeback in the spring of 1975. Chase made the move to comedy as a full-time career by 1973, when he became a writer and cast member of *The National Lampoon Radio Hour*, a syndicated satirical radio series. *The National Lampoon Radio Hour* also featured John Belushi, Gilda Radner, Bill Murray, and Brian Doyle-Murray, all of whom later became "Not-Ready-For-Prime Time Players" on *NBC Saturday Night* (later re-titled *NBC's Saturday Night* and finally *Saturday Night Live*). Chase and Belushi also appeared in National Lampoon's off-Broadway revue *Lemmings*, a sketch and musical send-up of popular youth culture, in which Chase also played the drums and piano during the musical numbers. He appeared in the movie *The Groove Tube*, which was directed by another co-founder of Channel One, Ken Shapiro, featuring several Channel One sketches.

### *Saturday Night Live*

 File:Chevy Chase 1976.jpg
Chase was one of the original cast members of *Saturday Night Live* (*SNL*), NBC's late-night comedy television show, beginning in October 1975. During the first season, he introduced every show except two, with "Live from New York, it's *Saturday Night!*" The remark was often preceded by a pratfall, known as "The Fall of the Week." Chase became known for his skill at physical comedy. In one comedy sketch, he mimicked a real-life incident in which President Gerald Ford accidentally tripped while disembarking from Air Force One in Salzburg, Austria. This portrayal of President Ford, as a bumbling klutz, became a favorite device of Chase's and helped form the popular concept of Ford as being a clumsy man. In later years, Chase met and became friendly with President Ford.

Chase was the original anchor for the *Weekend Update* segment of *SNL*, and his catchphrase introduction, "I'm Chevy Chase… and you're not" became well known. His trademark conclusion, "Good night, and have a pleasant tomorrow" was later resurrected by Jane Curtin and Tina Fey. Chase also wrote comedy material for *Weekend Update*. For example, he wrote and performed "The News for the Hard of Hearing." In this skit, Chase read the top story of the day, aided by Garrett Morris, who repeated the story by loudly shouting it. Chase claimed that his version of *Weekend Update* was the inspiration for later news satire shows such as *The Daily Show* and *The Colbert Report*. *Weekend Update* was later revived as a segment on *The Chevy Chase Show*, a short-lived late-night talk show produced by Chase and broadcast by Fox Broadcasting Company.

Chase was committed contractually to *SNL* for only one year as a writer and became a cast member during rehearsals just before the show's premiere. He received two Emmy Awards and a Golden Globe Award for his comedy writing and live comic acting on the show. In *Rolling Stone*'s February 2015 appraisal of all 141 *SNL* cast members to date, Chase was ranked tenth in overall importance. "Strange as it sounds, Chase might be the most *under*-rated *SNL* player," they wrote. "It took him only one season to define the franchise…without that deadpan arrogance, the whole *SNL* style of humor would fall flat."

In a 1975 *New York* magazine cover story, which called him "The funniest man in America," NBC executives referred to Chase as "The first real potential successor to Johnny Carson" and claimed he would begin guest-hosting *The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson* within six months of the article. Chase dismissed chatter that he could be the next Carson by telling *New York*, "I'd never be tied down for five years interviewing TV personalities." Chase did not appear on the program until May 4, 1977, when he was promoting a prime-time special for NBC. Carson later said of Chase: "He couldn't ad lib a fart after a baked bean dinner."

Chase acknowledged Ernie Kovacs's influence on his work in *Saturday Night Live*, and he thanked Kovacs during his acceptance speech for his Emmy Award. In addition, Chase spoke of Kovacs's influence on his work in an appearance in the 1982 documentary called *Ernie Kovacs: Television's Original Genius*.

#### Leaving *SNL*

In late 1976, in the middle of the second season, Chase became the first member of the original cast to leave the show. While he landed starring roles in several films on the strength of his *SNL* notoriety, he asserted that the principal reason for his departure was his girlfriend, Jacqueline Carlin's, reluctance to move to New York. Chase moved to Los Angeles, married Carlin, and was replaced by Bill Murray, although he made a few appearances on the show during the second season.

Chase hosted *SNL* eight times through 1997. He appeared on the show's 25th anniversary special in 1999 and was interviewed for a 2005 NBC special on the first five years of *SNL*. Later appearances included a *Caddyshack* skit featuring Bill Murray, a 1997 episode with guest host Chris Farley, as the Land Shark in a Weekend Update segment in 2001, another Weekend Update segment in 2007, and in Justin Timberlake's monologue in 2013 as a member of the Five-Timers Club, where he was reunited with his *Three Amigos* co-stars Steve Martin and Martin Short. He also participated in the 40th anniversary special in February 2015.

### Film Success

 File:Chevy Chase 1980.jpg
Chase's early film roles included *Tunnel Vision*, the box office hit *Foul Play*, and *Oh! Heavenly Dog*. The role of Eric "Otter" Stratton in *National Lampoon's Animal House* was originally written with Chase in mind, but he turned the role down to work on *Foul Play*. The role went to Tim Matheson instead. Chase said in an interview that he chose to do *Foul Play* so he could do "real acting" for the first time in his career instead of just doing "schtick." Chase followed *Foul Play* with the successful Harold Ramis comedy *Caddyshack*, in 1980. That same year, he also reunited with *Foul Play* co-star Goldie Hawn for Neil Simon's *Seems Like Old Times* and released a self-titled record album, co-produced by Chase and Tom Scott, with novelty and cover versions of songs by Randy Newman, Barry White, Bob Marley, the Beatles, Donna Summer, Tennessee Ernie Ford, The Troggs, and The Sugarhill Gang.

Chase narrowly escaped death by electrocution during the filming of *Modern Problems* in 1980. During a sequence in which Chase's character wears "landing lights" as he dreams that he is an airplane, the lights malfunctioned and electrical current passed through Chase's arm, back, and neck muscles. The near-death experience caused Chase to experience a period of deep depression, as his marriage to Jacqueline had ended just prior to the start of filming. Chase continued his film career in 1983's *National Lampoon's Vacation*, directed by Ramis and written by John Hughes. He married Jayni Luke in 1982, and in 1985, he starred in *Fletch*, the first of two films based on Gregory Mcdonald's *Fletch* books as well as *Spies Like Us*. Chase joined *SNL* veterans Steve Martin and Martin Short in the Lorne Michaels–produced comedy *Three Amigos* in 1986, declaring in an interview that making *Three Amigos* was the most fun he had making a film. The trio hosted *SNL* that year, the only time the show has had three hosts on one show.

At the height of his career in the late 1980s, Chase earned around US$7 million per film and was a highly visible celebrity. He appeared alongside Paul Simon, one of his best friends, in Simon's 1986 second video for "You Can Call Me Al," in which he lip-syncs all of Simon's lyrics. Chase hosted the Academy Awards in 1987 and 1988, signing on to the proceedings in 1988 with the opener, "Good evening, Hollywood phonies!" Chase filmed a sequel to *Vacation*, 1985's *National Lampoon's European Vacation* and then a third, *National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation*, in 1989, which, thanks to its holiday theme, has become one of his more durable films, airing on NBC every December. He played saxophone onstage at Simon's free concert at the Great Lawn in Central Park in the summer of 1991. Later in 1991, he helped record and appeared in the music video "Voices That Care" to entertain and support U.S. troops involved in Operation Desert Storm, and supported the International Red Cross.

#### Later work

 File:Gerald Ford and Chevy Chase.jpeg
 File:Chevy Chase 2000.jpg
Chase's career took a downturn in the early to mid-1990s. Chase had three consecutive film flops—1991's Razzie Award–nominated *Nothing but Trouble*, 1992's *Memoirs of an Invisible Man*, and 1994's *Cops & Robbersons*. The three releases had a combined gross of $34 million in the United States. Even the durable *Vacation* series ground to a halt, following 1997's *Vegas Vacation* installment. Some of the more recent films starring Chase (e.g., *Vacuums*, *Rent-a-Husband*, *Goose!*) have not been widely released in the United States. He returned to mainstream movie-making in 2006, co-starring with Tim Allen and Courteney Cox in the comedy *Zoom*, though it was both a critical and commercial failure.

In September 1993, Chase hosted *The Chevy Chase Show*, a weeknight talk show, for the Fox Broadcasting Company. Although it had high commercial expectations, the show was cancelled by Fox after five weeks. Chase later appeared in a commercial for Doritos, airing during the Super Bowl, in which he made humorous reference to the show's failure.

Chase was Hasty Pudding's 1993 Man of the Year, and received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1994. After having starred with Farrah Fawcett in the relatively successful *Man of the House* in 1995, he received The Harvard Lampoon's Lifetime Achievement Award in 1996.

In 1998, a Golden Palm Star on the Palm Springs, California, Walk of Stars was dedicated to him. He was roasted by the New York Friars Club for a Comedy Central television special in 2002. This roast was noted for being unusually vitriolic, even by the standards of a roast.  In 2015, Chase reprised his role as Clark Griswold in the fifth *Vacation* installment, titled *Vacation*. Unlike the previous four films in which Clark is the main protagonist, he only has a brief though pivotal cameo appearance. In spite of largely negative critical reception, the film itself has proven to be a financial success grossing over $104 million worldwide, making it the highest-grossing entry to date.

Chase guest-starred as an anti-Semitic murder suspect in "In Vino Veritas," the November 3, 2006, episode of *Law & Order*. He also guest-starred in the ABC drama series *Brothers & Sisters* in two episodes as a former love interest of Sally Field's character. Chase appeared in a prominent recurring role as villainous software magnate Ted Roark on the NBC spy-comedy *Chuck*. In 2009, Chase and Dan Aykroyd provided voices for the *Family Guy* episode "Spies Reminiscent of Us."

### *Community* (2009-2013)

Starting in 2009, Chase returned to NBC in the sitcom *Community*, as aging moist-towelette tycoon Pierce Hawthorne. The series received critical acclaim for its acting and writing, appeared on numerous critics' year-end "best-of" lists and developed a cult following. Chase left the show in 2012 after completing the majority of the episodes of season four. He returned for a cameo appearance in the season-five premiere. Although he had sometimes been involved in public disputes with creator Dan Harmon over the direction of the show, the role was nevertheless his most prominent in many years.

In 2010, he appeared in the film *Hot Tub Time Machine*, as well as a short online film featuring the Griswold Family, and in the *Funny or Die* original comedy sketch "Presidential Reunion," where he played President Ford alongside other current and former *SNL* president impersonators. 2019 saw him in the Netflix movie *The Last Laugh*.

**Television commercials**

Chase has appeared in a number of television commercials, including for Dollar Rent-a-Car (1996), Doritos (1996), History Channel (1999), a series of commercials for AAMI Insurance (Australia, 1999), Aflac (2003), Cola Turka (2003), T-Mobile (2009), and Chase Manhattan Bank (2010).

## Personal life

Chase married Susan Hewitt on February 23, 1973, in New York City. They divorced three years later, on February 1, 1976. His second marriage, to Jacqueline Carlin, was formalized on December 4, 1976. They divorced on November 14, 1980. He married his third and current wife, Jayni Luke, on June 19, 1982, in Pacific Palisades, Los Angeles.

In 1986, Chase was admitted to the Betty Ford Clinic for treatment of an addiction to prescription painkillers. His use of these drugs began after he experienced ongoing back pain related to the pratfalls he took during his *Saturday Night Live* appearances. In 2010, he said that his drug abuse had been "low level." He entered Minnesota's Hazelden Clinic in September 2016 for treatment of an alcohol-related issue.

Chase is an active environmentalist, charity fundraiser, and liberal. He raised money for Bill Clinton in the 1990s and John Kerry in the 2004 Presidential Election. Following the 2004 elections, Chase mocked President George W. Bush during a speech at a People for the American Way benefit at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, referring to the President as an "uneducated, real lying schmuck" and a "dumb fuck."

## Awards and Nominations

On 23 September 1993. Chase received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 7021 Hollywood Blvd.
