Professional Dancer. He was the last original member of the groundbreaking tap-dance act the "Four Step Brothers".

They are credited with breaking the color line by being the first black act to perform at Radio City Music Hall in New York, Chez Paris Club in Chicago, and the first to perform on television thus becoming the best known dance act in the nation. "The Four Step Brothers" also appeared in numerous motion pictures and were honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1988.
