Shannon, who John shares with his wife Noel Mickelson, grew up visiting the sets where her father filmed, including "Coming to America" and "Good Times." At an early age, she was exposed to filmmaking dynamics and later focused on the craft.

The show won nine out of 37 Emmy Award nominations, a Golden Globe, and a Peabody Award during its run.

Instead of finishing her college education, Shannon focused on first-hand experience behind-the-scenes and became a production assistant on "Yo! MTV Raps." She later landed a job as the segment producer of the hit series, "America's Most Wanted."

Like Shannon, her brother, K.C., also joined the entertainment industry as a director and producer, known for his work on "Tamales and Gumbo," "Syphon Gun," and "Huntsville."

Apart from her career, Shannon has traveled to several African countries to know more about their culture and needs. In one of her trips, she met a group of kids from Kenya called "Cherry Scholars."

She took it to her Instagram to share the assistance they need at the Cherry Centre to receive education, food, and shelter. Shannon's post also encouraged her followers to know more about the kids and how to help.

The show won nine out of 37 Emmy Award nominations, a Golden Globe, and a Peabody Award during its run. John too was given an Emmy nomination for his work on the show.
