Godfrey Cambridge
American actor and comedian (1933–1976)
Godfrey MacArthur Cambridge (February 26, 1933 – November 29, 1976) was an American stand-up comic and actor.
Alongside Bill Cosby, Dick Gregory, and Nipsey Russell, he was acclaimed by Time in 1965 as "one of the country's foremost celebrated Negro comedians."[8]
Early life
Cambridge was born in New York City on February 26, 1933, to Alexander and Sarah Cambridge, who were immigrants from British Guiana.[9][10] His parents, dissatisfied with the New York Public School System, sent him to live with his grandparents in Sydney, Nova Scotia, Canada, during his primary school years.[9] When he was 13, Cambridge moved back to New York and attended Flushing High School in Flushing, Queens.[9]
In 1949, Cambridge studied medicine at Hofstra College,[2] which he attended for three years before dropping out to pursue a career in acting.[9]
