Paul Butcher, a Child Prodigy


The subject of child prodigies has always been fascinating. Paul Butcher, son of an equally famous father though in a different discipline, became a household name with his role in the hit American sitcom Zoey 101. His acting career that started when he was barely 7 years old, has been keeping him very busy.


Apart from making his appearances in some of the most notable TV shows like NYPD blue, ER, and That 70s Show, Paul’s played noticeable roles in movies like Hollywood Homicide, The Number 23 and Land Speed. He’s also lent his voice to some of the animation characters in Meet the Robinsons, Over the Hedge and He’s a Bully, Charlie Brown. Paul is able to do Midwestern, British and Southern accents.


Paul says “The proudest day of my life was when I got the awesome role of Dustin Brooks on Nickelodeon’s Zoey 101”. He played the role of Zoey’s brother who studies in a fictional boys school called Pacific Coast Academy or the PCA. It narrates the story of Zoey, who decides to be the first girl student in PCA and the situations that she finds herself in.


Paul butcher has managed a very impressive resume in this short period and his career shows a steady upward graph.
