Lamman Rucker was an American actor who got his start working in soap operas, before his career earned a cosign from the likes of Tyler Perry and Oprah Winfrey. Born on October 6, 1971 in Pittsburgh, PA, Rucker first became interested in acting when he was cast as Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. in his 4th grade play. He went to high school at the prestigious Duke Ellington School of the Arts, before furthering his studies at Carnegie-Mellon University and Duquesne University. Rucker's first screen appearance came with a role in the made for TV movie "The Temptations" (NBC, 1998), however, he got his big break in 2002, when he was cast as T. Marshall Travers on the long-running daytime soap opera, "As the World Turns" (CBS, 1956-2010). Rucker would play Travers for the next three years, until 2005, when he joined the cast of yet another long-running daytime soap opera, "All My Children" (ABC, 1970-2011), playing series regular Garret Williams. With a starring role in the romantic dramedy "Why Did I Get Married?" (2007), Rucker began a long and fruitful collaboration with Tyler Perry, who would go on to cast Rucker in the family comedy "Meet the Browns" (2008), and its sitcom adaptation of the same name (TBS, 2009-2012), as well as the popular sequel "Why Did I Get Married Too? " (2010). After co-starring with Mena Suvari on the short-lived drama "South of Hell" (WEtv, 2015), Rucker entered the world of Oprah when he was cast as the eldest son in the titular family of the religious drama "Greenleaf" (OWN, 2016-).
