Harvey Brownstone conducts an in-depth Interview with Ernest Lee Thomas, Renowned Actor, Star of “What’s Happening!!” & “Everybody Hates Chris”

About Harvey's guest:

Today’s guest, Ernest Lee Thomas, is a beloved actor, producer and author who is perhaps best known for his portrayal of “Roger Thomas” – better known as "Raj" - on the immensely popular sitcom “What's Happening!!”, and the equally popular sequel, “What's Happening Now!!”. And of course, we all loved him as “Mr. Omar” on “Everybody Hates Chris”.  

But beyond those iconic roles, our guest has had a long and distinguished career.  He starred on Broadway in “Love For Love” and “The Member Of The Wedding”. On the big screen, you’ve seen him in dozens of movies including “A Piece of the Action”, “Malcolm X”, “Paroled”, “Funny People”, “The Pastor and Mrs. Jones”, “Revenge”, “79 Parts”, “Loved to Death”, “The Gods 2: The Dark Side”, and the multi-award winning short film, “Earworm”, for which he won a Best Actor award at the Indie Horror Film Festival.  

And on television, besides the shows I already mentioned, he appeared in the highly acclaimed miniseries “Roots”, and on popular TV shows including “The Jeffersons”, “Baretta”, “In the Heat of the Night”, “Soul Food”, “The Steve Harvey Show”, “Are We There Yet”, “Diarra from Detroit”, and the wonderful TV movie “The Lost Souls Café”.  Our guest has also written 2 highly inspirational, poignant and uplifting books: “Conversations with my Mother: Food for the Mind, Body and Soul”; and a wonderful memoir entitled, “From Raj to Riches: Overcoming Life Through Faith”.  

And coming in September, our guest will be appearing in the new animated series "EVERYBODY STILL HATES CHRIS" which will make its debut on the Comedy Central channel. I’m delighted to welcome Ernest Lee Thomas to our show.
