Jimmie JJ Walker
The term “maximizing one’s potential” could have been coined to describe the life of Jimmie Walker, who strode out of the New York ghetto, first to educate himself and then to become one of the best-known television personalities in the United States. Jimmie accepted a part in the CBS comedy series Good Times as J.J. Evans. We can all remember his “Dyn-O-Mite” role that made him a household name. He has been a regular on The Late Show with David Letterman, Politically Incorrect and The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. Most recently Jimmie has appeared on Chelsea Lately, Everybody Hates Chris and George Lopez. In 2012, Jimmie Walker published his memoir, the critically acclaimed, Good Times, Bad Times, Our Times, DYN-O-MITE!, published by The Perseus Books Group.
