Thomas Daniel "Tim" Conway (December 15, 1933May 14, 2019) was an American comedian and actor, primarily known for his roles in sitcoms, films and television. Conway is best known for his role as the inept second-in-command officer, Ensign Charles Parker, to Lt. Commander Quinton McHale (played by Ernest Borgnine), in the popular 1960s WWII sitcom McHale's Navy, and for co-starring alongside Carol Burnett and Harvey Korman on The Carol Burnett Show.

On Nickelodeon, Conway was best known as present-day Barnacle Boy on SpongeBob SquarePants. In the episode "Mermaid Man Begins", it is revealed that Barnacle Boy's identity before becoming the superhero was named Tim as well. Conway also had a few minor voice roles as various animals on The Wild Thornberrys.

Conway died on May 14, 2019, at the age of 85 from complications of normal pressure hydrocephalus.

The 2020 video game SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom - Rehydrated used archival recordings of Tim Conway's voice as Barnacle Boy (originally recorded for the original 2003 game), technically making the remake his first and only posthumous role.
