Kenny Johnson is a familiar face on television as he has starred in several great productions, including "The Shield," "Saving Grace," "Bates Motel," "Sons of Anarchy," and "S.W.A.T."

Despite his busy work schedule, Kenny still prioritizes his family, including his wife, Cathleen Oveson, and their only daughter, Angelica Johnson.

Cathleen gave birth to her first daughter, Angelica Scarlet Johnson, on May 7, 2009. Her beautiful little fourteen-year-old sometimes appears on Kenny's social media posts, including birthday tributes to his daughter.

Cathleen also shares glimpses of her daughter on Facebook, although she has not posted much in recent years. In 2012, Cathleen shared a wonderful portrait of her with her daughter, smiling outdoors.

Three years later, the doting mother shared another picture of her daughter with Kenny. In the snap, the duo looked closely at each other, with their nose touching. Kenny had a big smile on his face while gazing into his daughter's eyes. Meanwhile, Angelica looked focused while staring at her dad.

Cathleen Oveson's Daughter Is Also an Actress

Interestingly, Cathleen's daughter also has acting credits to her name. In 2018, when she was only eight, Angelica appeared alongside her father in an episode of "S.W.A.T."

According to Kenny, his daughter had already appeared in the film "No Stranger Pilgrims" and had done musicals at that time. He added:

"She got a call a month later and auditioned. She had an hour and a half to do an eight-page scene, and I worked with her on it. It was mostly opposite my character. Shawn really liked it [...]."

The experience of working alongside Kenny's daughter was beautiful and special. Kenny had nothing but wonderful things to say about his daughter's acting, comparing it to Holly Hunter and Forrest Whitaker's "ability to be so present."

"I just didn't want to suck for her. I was nervous because I wanted her to be great, and at the same time, I need to exist in these moments as purely as possible. She lives in the moment, and then the next moment, she is asking for a treat," he added. Kenny stars in "S.W.A.T." alongside Shemar Moore, Lina Esco, and Alex Russell.
