Trevor (born/formerly credited as Timothy Eyster) joined the industry at the tender age of 7, and was quickly whisked off to film a Disney movie in Nepal, with Milla Jovovich. From 1985-1993 he amassed over 60 TV commercial credits, including 6 McDonald's spots, Minute Maid OJ, Eggo Waffles and others. He landed guest star and recurring roles on: Dallas, Matlock, Family Ties, Married... with Children, Santa Barbara all before he turned 12. Today, he is best known and loved by TV audiences for his geek archetype-defining role of "Sponge" on 90's Nickelodeon's summer camp sitcom "Salute Your Shorts". Trevor left the industry to pursue other life interests, shortly after a guest star appearance on the 5th Season Premiere of "Babylon 5", in 2000. Now, he's back: older, wiser and full of spit & grit.
