Biyografi

Rus-Yahudi bir göçmen ailesinin çocuğu olarak New York'ta doğmuştur. Orijinal soyadının Matuschansky olduğu iddia edilse de bu doğrulanamamıştır. Kayıtlarda ismi Walter John Matthow olarak geçmektedir. Gençliğinde New York'ta Yiddish tiyatrosuna katılmış ve bu sıralar sert bulduğu soyadını Matthau olarak değiştirmiştir.

II. Dünya Savaşı yıllarında Amerikan Hava Kuvvetlerinde B-24 Liberator uçaklarında telsizci olarak görev yapmıştır.

1955 yılında ilk filmini Burt Lancaster ile beraber oynayarak çevirmiştir. Sonrasında birkaç western filmde oynamış ve yönetmenlik deneyimlerinde bulunmuştur.

1965 yılında başlayan Odd Couple serisi filmlerde Jack Lemmon ile başlayan serüveni uzun yıllar devam etmiş ve pek çok filmde birlikte rol almışlardır. Bu arada 1966 yılında The Fortune Cookie filmi ile en iyi yardımcı erkek oyuncu dalında Oscar'a uzanmıştır.

Matthau iki kez evlenmiş ve iki eşinden birer çocuğu olmuştur. Kalp krizi nedeni ile yaşamını yitirdiğinde 79 yaşındaydı. Ancak tüm vücuda yayılmış kolon kanseri ile karşılaşılmasına karşın bu ölüm raporuna yansıtılmadı.
