Jenifer Jeanette Lewis (born January 25, 1957) is an American film, theatre, and television actress, comedian, and singer.
==Early life==
Lewis was born in St. Louis, Missouri, to a nurse's aide mother and a factory worker father. She attended Kinloch High School and then college at Webster University in Webster Groves, Missouri. Soon after, she arrived in New York City, Lewis debuted on Broadway in a small role in ''Eubie'' (1979), the musical based on the work of Eubie Blake. She next landed the role of Effie White in the workshop of the Michael Bennett-directed musical ''Dreamgirls'', but when the show moved to Broadway, Bennett chose Jennifer Holliday for the role.
Lewis accepted a position as a Harlette, a back-up singer for Bette Midler which led to Lewis' first TV appearances on Midler's HBO specials. She also landed her first screen role as a result, appearing as one of the buxom chorines in the 'Otto Titsling' production number in the Midler vehicle ''Beaches'' (1988). At the same time, Lewis was developing her nightclub act, ''The Diva Is Dismissed'', an autobiographical comedy and music show in New York City cabarets. She performed the show off-Broadway at the Public Theater.
