Bill Cosby has been imparting laughs and life lessons for decades, most notably as the voice of Fat Albert and as loving husband and father Dr. Cliff Huxtable on “The Cosby Show.” In recent years, the 70-year-old comedian has been making headlines for his controversial stances on parenting and poverty, particularly as they affect African Americans.
Plain Dealer reporter Stan Donaldson spoke with Cosby in July while reporting for the newspaper’s “Inequality of Life” series.
