Timeline

1986

Had been a real estate investor prior to his death. He received his real estate license in 1986.

1985

The family show ended its long run in 1985 after a decade.

1981

His character of Lionel, however, had dwindled so significantly in importance that he left the show again in 1981, this time for good.

1979

Mike eventually reclaimed the part in 1979 after the cancellation of "Good Times".

1975

The hit series spun the Jefferson clan into their own "moving on up" sitcom The Jeffersons (1975) four years later. The "moving on up" was from Queens to a "deluxe apartment" in Manhattan, where the burgeoning, financially successful George now held court as head intolerant. Mike's character eventually met and fell for Jenny, the beautiful product of an interracial marriage. This became a major source of combustible comedy material that initially fed the new sitcom.

In fact he left the role completely in the fall of 1975 after only eight months to focus on his writing and was replaced by actor Damon Evans (no relation to Mike), who inhabited the part for four seasons.

1974

In the meantime Mike and writing partner Eric Monte had also co-created and was writing for another Lear sitcom Good Times (1974), which was a spin-off of Lear's comedy hit Maude (1972), which, in turn, was a spin-off of sitcom daddy All in the Family (1971). The major responsibilities and hardships of writing for "Good Times", which became one of the first TV sitcoms to feature a primarily African-American cast in quite some time, took its toll and Mike began making fewer appearances as Lionel.

1972

During the run of the show, Mike also boosted his visibility with the TV-movies Killer by Night (1972), Call Her Mom (1972) and Voyage of the Yes (1973) co-starring Desi Arnaz Jr.

, not to mention the Disney family comedy feature Now You See Him, Now You Don't (1972) starring Kurt Russell.

1971

Landing the role of black next-door neighbor Lionel Jefferson in Lear's iconic sitcom All in the Family (1971) was a lucky fluke -- something every fledgling actor should get to experience.

In fact, Mike was still attending acting school when he was cast in the 1971 show at age 21. The series altered the course of TV comedy while tackling many then-taboo subjects, including racial prejudice. Due to the quality of the cast and writing, the series managed to thoroughly engage and entertain an audience despite it being fronted by a blue-collar bigot in the form of Archie Bunker (played by the great Carroll O'Connor). As the calm, intelligent, level-headed Lionel, son of hothead George (Sherman Hemsley) and his beleaguered wife Louise Jefferson (Isabel Sanford), Lionel's liberal-minded stance was more akin to Archie's live-in younger generation. As friend to Archie's daughter Gloria and her husband Mike, Lionel had to somehow tolerate his grouchy neighbor's exasperating politically-incorrect banter, but made up for it with clever, carefully-worded digs at the often-clueless Archie.

1970

Clean cut and smoothly handsome as a youth, Mike Evans got on board the Norman Lear TV train in the early 1970s and took a straight ride to sitcom stardom in both a landmark comedy series and its black-oriented spin-off.

Mike took on a low profile after his 1970s successes and was not seen onscreen again. By this time he had delved into Southern California real estate.

1949

Born Michael Jonas Evans in Salisbury, North Carolina, on November 3, 1949, his dentist father and school instructor mother moved the family to Los Angeles when Mike was quite young. Graduating from Los Angeles High School, he attended Los Angeles City College before his abrupt TV success.
