Laurence Fishburne recently got to see a photo of his biological father for the first time.
What is Laurence Fishburne’s history with his father?
In the final episode of season 10 on the PBS documentary show Finding Your Roots, Fishburne made an appearance where images of a man, identified as his biological father, were displayed. This was a person other than the man who had been known to him as his father during his upbringing.
In a recent episode segment (as reported by People), the show’s presenter, Henry Louis Gates, Jr., unveiled pictures of a certain individual alongside Lawrence Fishburne, who displayed great enthusiasm and strong feelings upon seeing them.
“There he is. Is that him?” Fishburne said. “Hey Pop. My god, wow, that’s my dad. That’s cool.”
When asked about seeing the individual’s face, Fishburne replied that it was truly delightful. “It’s such a pleasure to behold his smile and observe him as a kind-hearted man,” remarked the esteemed actor, expressing his relief upon finally viewing the images, and acknowledging that recognizing the person from whom he originated brought him comfort.
Born and raised in Augusta, Georgia, Fishburne spent his childhood with his mother, Hattie Bell Fishburne – a dedicated junior high school math and science teacher – and the man he addressed as his father, Laurence John Fishburne Jr., who worked in juvenile corrections.
