		During its run in San Francisco, Hemsley was spotted by producer Norman Lear who had been searching for two years for an actor to portray an upwardly mobile African American dry cleaner who disliked "honkies" as much as his neighbor Archie Bunker disliked "coloreds" on the ground-breaking CBS sitcom "All in the Family".
		For 11 seasons, Hemsley won the approval of the audience as the obnoxious, money-hungry, bigoted George who was always kept from going too far by the love he had for his more-centered wife.
		Hemsley's constant employment on TV sitcoms has limited his work in other avenues, although he had frequently performed his song and dance act on the Las Vegas stage and in other venues.

	Bio for Sherman Hemsley on MSN Movies
		Sherman Hemsley is best remembered for playing George Jefferson, the lovably pompous, little loud-mouth who made a fortune from his dry cleaning business and moved from Queens to a posh Manhattan high rise in The Jeffersons, a popular sitcom that ran ten years on the CBS network.
		Following the series' demise, Hemsley played an egotistical, loud-mouthed deacon/lawyer at the First Community Church of Philadelphia who tried to keep the new minister, Reverend Gregory, from taking over what he viewed as his personal domain, on Amen.
		While Hemsley continues to appear frequently on television as a guest star and has even starred in such failed series as Townsend Television (1993) and Goode Behavior (1996-1997), he has yet to recapture the success he had during the '70s and '80s.
