Overview
Robert Cabot “Bobby” Sherman Jr. (born July 22, 1943), is an American retired paramedic, police officer, singer, actor and occasional songwriter who became a teen idol in the late 1960s and early 1970s. He had a series of successful singles, notably the million-seller "Little Woman" (1969). Sherman retreated from his show business career in the 1970s for a career as a paramedic and a deputy sheriff, though he occasionally performed into the 1990s.
Entertainment career
Music
In 1962, Sal Mineo wrote two songs for Sherman as well as arranging for Sherman to record the songs. In 1964, when Mineo asked Sherman to sing with his old band at a Hollywood party (where many actors and agents were in attendance), Sherman was signed with an agent and eventually landed a part on the ABC television show Shindig! as a regular cast member/house singer.
Sherman made several records with Decca and another smaller label and was featured in teen magazines. In early 1968, he was selected for the role of a bashful, stammering logger, Jeremy Bolt, in the ABC television series Here Come the Brides (1968-1970). As of 1970, Bobby Sherman had received more fan mail than any other performer on the ABC-TV network.
