During the 1990s, Kenny honed his acting skills by appearing in a variety of roles, including support performances in “Family Matters”, “Grace Under Fire”, “The Big Easy” and “The Burning Zone” TV series, as well as in movies such as “Archibald the Rainbow Painter” and “Blade”, both in 1998.

All these appearances helped Kenny to add a significant amount to the size of his net worth.

With the beginning of the 21st century, Johnson’s career was set on the rising path, as he was cast for more and more serious and notable roles, and in 2002 landed the role of detective Curtis ‘Lem’ Lemansky which he portrayed ’til 2006. That year he was also cast for another memorable part – the recurring role of Joseph Shaw in CBS TV’s police drama series “Cold Case”. However, the real breakthrough in Johnson’s acting career occurred in 2007, when he began starring as Hamilton ‘Ham’ Dewey in TNT’s crime drama television series “Saving Grace”, spending the next four years in the character.

Some of Johnson’s more recent acting engagements include “Secrets and Lies” and “Bates Motel” TV series, as well as “critically-booed” 2017 action thriller “Check Point”.

Kenny Johnson Quotes

• On portraying Ham Dewey, one of the female writers on the show wouldn’t even look at him: I would have to tell her, It’s not me! It’s this character! How do you think I feel? I’ve gotta play the guy! But it really, really makes you feel a certain way towards him. I’m not trying to make him a sympathetic character in any way whatsoever. I’m trying not to judge it personally. It’s a very tough line to draw, because I’m married, and this is the exact kind of guy that I’d never want to be. “People automatically say, what a sleaze. There is a sense of denial that this guy is in. But I know real cops. When they’re paired up together, they get so close, you know? There’s no excuse for it, but these guys do have a connection. They fight like cats and dogs, but when they get in a really messed-up situation, they’re there for each other.”
• I love people! I am a people person. I am a very curious human being. I am very interested in what people have to say. I love cultures too, so I am always traveling. I am very thankful for anybody who follows anything I do. I never take it for granted that people are out there watching. I want to thank them for giving me the time.
• In my work, I just want to tell a story and help people go on a journey. I’m glad any fans that I do have and I’m usually not aware of it until I get out there or read a message board. I want to thank everyone who follows my work.
