Biography
A talented comedian Chevy Chase was a success in the American movies in the late eighties. Born in 1943 in Woodstock, USA, he is a versatile personality. He has excelled as an actor in films and has also shined as a writer. He excels in the family oriented genre. He turned down the offer of the lead role in American Beauty. The comedy TV show Saturday Night Live aired a confident Chevy Chase in his best.
His dedication towards acting almost ended his life while playing a certain role. In the movie set of Modern Problems he was almost electrocuted. His depression which resulted due to that incident continued for quite some time. As a kid he wanted to become a doctor. But his clown like behaviour resulted in being expelled from school and college for different reasons. He is a highly sportive personality and a zest for life. He has a perfect ear for music and never misses a note. Chevy Chase's perfection towards details has earned him respect from those in his field.
His appearance in the promotion of a Turkish based cool drink called Cola Turka turned out to be hilarious. The soft drink was a direct challenge to Coca Cola and Pepsi. It is about an American family that turns Turkish in their behaviour and speech. The commercial was comic as well as realistic.
Due to his popularity he has streets in Cochranton, Pennsylvania and New Orleans, Louisiana named after him. The Chevy Chase Streets are famous and are a constant reminder of this great personality. Chevy Chase's career has seen both ups and downs. Movies released in the 90s' such as 'Memoirs of an Invisible man' did not fair well but his popularity was never on the downward trend. His contributions to the world of show business will always be remembered.
