If I Can Tell Someone

I Became The Storyteller Of South Side Chicago. I Used An Old Kiwi Liquid Shoe Polish As A Microphone. I'd Go Around The House Interviewing Everybody, Telling Stupid Jokes, Doing Voices. I Mimicked Sidney Poitier, Sammy Davis Jr., People On 'laugh-in,' Flip Wilson.

I Have So Much Respect For What's Funny.

I Can Act. I've Been Acting For A Long Time, But Like Anything Else, Don't Nobody Owe You Nothing. You've Go To Pay Your Dues. You Go From A To Z; You Don't Go From M To Z.

I Know Doing Movies Is Where I Need To Be. That's Where My Audience Wants To See Me.

I Took My Sports Experience To My Life On Stage. That's Why I'm So Disciplined. Playing Sports, I Was Always Underestimated. I Was Never Picked First To Do Anything. This Always Helped Me. It Taught Me How To Push Myself.
