He was 97. Born on February 4, 1928, Ketchum began his entertainment career as a stand-up comic before transitioning to acting. He was a series regular in two short-lived sitcoms — I’m Dickens, He’s Fenster (1962–63) and Camp Runamuck (1965–66) — before landing his most iconic role. From 1966 to 1967, Ketchum appeared on the hit spy spoof Get Smart as Agent 13, the hapless undercover operative who always found himself hidden in the most inconvenient places — from vending machines to mailboxes — when receiving orders from Maxwell Smart (Don Adams). Though his appearances were brief, his deadpan delivery and perfectly pitched frustration made the character a fan favorite. Before and after Get Smart, Ketchum guest-starred on numerous popular series, including The Munsters, Bewitched, Perry Mason, The Andy Griffith Show, The Courtship of Eddie’s Father, The Mary Tyler Moore Show, and Love, American Style. He also acted in five episodes of Happy Days and reprised his role as Agent 13 in the 1989 TV movie Get Smart, Again! and the short-lived 1995 reboot..
