KEITH THIBODEAUX

Keith Thibodeaux was first known for his role on the television sitcom I Love Lucy from 1951 to 1957 as Ricky Ricardo’s (Desi Arnaz) sidekick, Little Ricky. That was the starting point of his booming acting career. Keith was also famous for playing as Opie’s friend, Johnny Paul Jason, from 1960 to 1968 in the Andy Griffith Show. He also joined the rock band David and the Giants in 1969.

Keith has an autobiography where he talked about anything he wanted and shared how he spent his money and investment from his trust fund on luxury and vices in just a span of just two weeks. Eventually, Keith developed a severe problem due to his vices, which contributed to the band’s break up. However, something remarkable happened that changed his life— Keith became a Christian. He met his wife, and she now owns a Christian ballet company, the Ballet Magnificat.
