as the struggling taxi driver, Bobby Wheeler from 1978-1982. Conaway's experience with Grease earned him a role on the 1978 film adaptation starring John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John as "Hicky" Kenickie. He would bounce around in film and TV in guest-roles and supporting roles for 20 years including parts on The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Kojak, and Happy Days. His last prominent and regular, scripted-role was Security Chief Zack Allen in the sci-fi cult hit, Babylon 5 from 1994-1998. Most recently, Conaway has contributed to 2D animated films based on Dante Alighieri's poems and spotty TV roles.
