Information About

Godfrey Cambridge




Memorable film roles include ''Watermelon Man'' where he plays the lead character, a white bigot who one day wakes up and discovers his skin color has changed to black and '' The President's Analyst '' where he plays a depressed CIA agent. He perhaps reached his biggest audience in a series of very amusing television commercials for Jockey brand underwear.

Cambridge died of a Heart Attack while on the set of the movie Victory At Entebbe in which he was scheduled to portray Idi Amin . It is possible that the often rotund Cambridge's habit of Yo-yo dieting contributed to his early demise.
