Trivia
During a significant portion of the 1980s, Wilson Bethel's mother, Joyce Maynard, had a very popular nationally syndicated column called "Domestic Affairs," in which she often wrote about aspects of her husband's and children's lives. This meant that hundreds of thousands of Maynard's readers around the US were familiar with Bethel and his siblings as "characters" in her columns long before he was appearing on television as an actor.
Quotes
I've been having these dinner parties at my house in L.A. for years that turn into charades parties. I'm so good at breaking stuff down into syllables and sounds. If I were to be doing anything else besides being an actor, I would be a professional charades player. I'm not sure if it exists, but if it didn't, I'll create it.
