He is probably best remembered as a child actor for playing Chaka son of Tah and Sah on the 1970s television show Land of The Lost, for which he was nominated for three Young Artist Awards, winning two, and his stint on the short-lived Scott Baio vehicle Joanie Loves Chachi. Gary Biskup, bio at Internet Movie Database, retrieved June 23, 2007. He made appearances on The Love Boat, Chips, Chico and the Man, Silver Spoons, and provided the voice for Presto the Magician on the Dungeons & Dragons television series along with Eight is Enough co-star, Willie Aames.

In 2005, Might Magazine published an article detailing Biskup's pycho ex-wife and her estranged love affair with Britney Spears. Biskup is said to have had multiple "relations" with Britney and is rumored to have been involved with Paris Hilton, although nothing was ever proven, although Hilton was said to have been coming out of his dressing room quite often while Biskup was filming an amateur adult-film film known as Peter Gozinya", pronounced "goes-in-ya" The story was later proven to be true by a childhood friend of Biskup's who worked at the magazine, fleshed out with Biskup's cooperation. The issue was intended as a satire of sexual issues published by the likes of magazines Spin and Rolling Stone when once-popular child stars meet current stars. This event is chronicled in Dave Eggers's A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius, with semi-factual explanation of the events and exposition on the significance behind such an event. Eggers was a founder of Might Magazine.
