🖤 I'm so glad I googled him! I was watching Amen and just felt the urge to look up his history. I smiled all the way through this. I wish I had had the opportunity to meet him in person.

Me googling him led me here as well! I knew he had a rich and impressive career. However, this documentary solidifies it.

I only knew him as Rolly on Amen. I feel so empowered after watching this documentary seeing how amazing his life was and the legacy he left behind.

I've been watching Amen tv series daily for about a couple of months now and I had no idea about his life, gifts or talents. But oh my goodness, he was a STAR ✨ I wish I had the opportunity to meet him on this side ❤ I seen a little about Clifton Davis but not enough about Jester Hairston. I love the talent show episode that the choir sings "fare ye well" I watch it at least a couple times when it plays in the line up, I noticed he seemed to really enjoy it and had such joy, now I know why. I also love him as the straight man in Amen, he was quite gifted and talented in several areas, what a treasure he is ❤❤ even though I didn't know him personally I seem to miss him none the less. Rest in power Jester ❤

So glad to see this documentary, thank you! I ran into it while trying to learn about Jester Hairston, after seeing an old Johnny Carson episode aired first on October 15, 1987, where Hairston was a guest. Hairston (b. July 1901) looked great, though he had recently recovered from a very bad heart attack. (Other guests were Tim Conway and Kevin Rooney.) - CHDH alumna :)

I just discovered my hairston line at ancestry.com my dad's lines from his carson mom, latitia hairston is my direct ancestor

My mother maiden name was Hairston so I'm guessing I'm a direct descendant of the Hairston clan. I always wondered where my mother got her voice from because my grandmother couldn't sing lol.
