Biography:"Tony Dow" is best remembered for playing Wally Cleaver, the clean-cut and much wiser older brother of Beaver on the classic family sitcom "Leave It to Beaver" (1957-1963). Since the show's demise, he has appeared sporadically in a couple feature films and in a few television movies. He reprised the role of Wally in the 1980s in the made-for-TV reunion film "Still the Beaver" (1983) and in the series it spawned. In 1965, Dow starred in the short-lived series Never Too Young. After a final feature-film appearance as a judge in the good-natured, nostalgic spoof of the "Beach Party" movies "Back to the Beach" (1987), Dow disappeared for a few years and then re-emerged as a director of television episodes for such series as "Babylon 5" (1993) and as a producer of films such as It Came From Outer Space II (1996). ~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide
