Anyone know what became of Ben Powers who played Keith in Season 6 of Good Times? Did he do more TV work after Good Times?

That's a good question. I've always wondered what happened to him, but I can't find any info on him anywhere on the internet.

This has got to be one of the biggest unsolved mysteries on this board. I too would love to know whatever happened to Ben Powers.

he did a very early appearance on Gimmie A Break. Didn't he play Nell's ex?

Oh yeah you are correct as I was real tired the day I posted that.

That should have read that I rented a DVD of some stand up show hosted by Norm Crosby (there were quite a few of them) and Ben Powers was on that and that's where he did is wonderful immitations of COSBY, TONY BENNETT, and others
