Artist Portrait

Timmie Rogers

voc, 1914-2006 US, Detroit
Singer / Songwriter of Rock, Pop and Blues

Timmie Rogers (born Timothy John Anerum July 4, 1914 – December 17, 2006) was an American comedian, singer-songwriter, bandleader and actor who appeared on many national TV shows in the 1960s and 1970s. Rogers was one of the first Black comedians allowed to directly address a white audience when he worked. Before Rogers, African-American funny men had to either work in pairs or groups, only conversing with each other, and they had to play a character, while popular white comedians, such as Bob Hope and Jack Benny got to play themselves. Rogers worked by himself, always dressed well, often wearing a tuxedo, and never wore blackface.
