From his groundbreaking role as one of television's first Black patriarchs on the 1970s sitcom Good Times to his Emmy-nominated performance as an adult Kunta Kinte in the iconic miniseries Roots, Amos has captivated audiences with his talent and presence. Throughout his career, he has graced both the small and big screens, appearing in popular shows like The Mary Tyler Moore Show, The West Wing, and Two and a Half Men, as well as movies like Let's Do It Again and Coming to America.
