What Is Emmanuel Lewis' Net Worth?

Emmanuel Lewis is an American actor who has a net worth of $600 thousand. Emmanuel Lewis is best known for his role as the title character in the 1980s television sitcom "Webster." Later on, he appeared in episodes of such sitcoms as "In the House," "Family Matters," and "Moesha." In the 2000s, Lewis made cameo appearances as himself in the comedy films "Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star" and "Kickin' it Old Skool."

Standing at a mere 4 ft 3 inches tall, he was often compared to (and sometimes confused with)Gary Coleman, star of the late '70s/early '80s sitcom "Diff'rent Strokes." When "Diff'rent Strokes" became a hit on NBC, ABC tried, with some success, to duplicate that show's formula of depicting a small but precocious African-American boy being raised in a white family. The resulting show, "Webster," made Lewis a huge star.

Early Life and Education

Emmanuel Lewis was born on March 9, 1971, in Brooklyn, New York City. He was raised by. single mother, Margaret, and is the youngest of five siblings. As a teen, Lewis attended Midwood High School, graduating in 1989. Later, he enrolled at Clark Atlanta University, a Methodist, historically black college in Atlanta, Georgia.

"Webster"

At the age of 12 in 1983, Lewis made his acting debut on the program that would become his claim to fame: the ABC sitcom "Webster." He starred in the title role as a young orphan boy who gets adopted by his godfather, George Papadopoulos, a retired NFL star, and his wife Katherine, a posh socialite. For his performance, Emmanuel was nominated for four consecutive Young Artist Awards. However, as the years went on, Lewis grew more tired of being on the program and playing a character about half his age. At the age of 17, although he was still relatively short, he had more than outgrown the title role. His costars,Alex KarrasandSusan Clark, agreed, leading to the program's conclusion in 1989. In lieu of a traditional series finale, the final episode, "Webtrek," featured Webster going on an adventure aboard the Starship Enterprise from "Star Trek." On the ship, he encounters Lt. Worf from "Star Trek: The Next Generation," with many flashbacks from the six seasons of "Webster" being shown throughout.
