Cedric has celebrated many career successes spanning television, live performances and film. Some notable accolades include nabbing the AFTRA Award of Excellence in Television Programming for his Fox Television series “Cedric The Entertainer Presents…;” a record breaking (4) consecutive NAACP Image Awards for “Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series” for his portrayal of the lovable “Coach Cedric Robinson” on the WB’s #1-rated “The Steve Harvey Show,” which ran for six seasons. His first comedy book, Grown-Ass Man, was released in January of 2002 and sold out across the country. In 2001, a viewing audience of over 144 million saw Cedric star in the Bud Light commercial that landed in the #1 spot during the Super Bowl broadcast (subsequently, USA Today dubbed him “Madison Avenue’s Most Valuable Player”). And, in 1994, Cedric received The Richard Pryor Comic of The Year Award from Black Entertainment Television for his ground-breaking work as host of “Def Comedy Jam” and BET’s “Comic View” (1994-95 season).

Now helming his own production company, A Bird and a Bear Entertainment, Cedric will develop and produce feature films. “Johnson Family Vacation” was the first feature under the new company.
