Jerry Mathers — 1948
Remember the cute little boy who played Theodore “Beaver” Cleaver on Leave It to Beaver starting in 1957? Well, look at him all grown up at 72 years old. Jerry Mathers is the actor who played Beaver, and after earning recognition from the show, he has continued his career into the 21st century.
Mathers reprised the role in the ’80s on The New Leave It to Beaver, which had over 100 episodes. However, we haven’t seen him since Lucky Day in 2015. Mathers has tied the knot thrice and is the father of three children.
