Marsha Warfield is Holding Court Metrosource Minis: The LGBTQ World & Beyond

She’s baaaack! After a 20-year retirement from the business, actor and comedian Marsha Warfield is back on the scene, openly out, and has a lot to say. Politics, coming out, her role as a black woman in society, and even pizza… at age 70 she’s not shying away this time. Not even meaning to, Marsha made national fame for her role as Roz in Night Court during the ‘80s and ‘90s. This year, she returned to the role for the reboot, and as life imitates art, her character is also out and proud and newly married to a woman. Representation has certainly come a long way. In this episode, Marsha gets candid and talks about growing up in Chicago’s South Side, her early stand-up career that happened almost by chance, packing up and moving to Los Angeles, working on The Richard Pryor Show, getting cast on Night Court, staying in the closet, coming out of the closet, coming back to the biz and Night Court, her take on the entertainment industry, finding love and marriage, and a lot more.
