Bobby Sherman

Sporting a winning smile and fashionably shaggy hair, Bobby Sherman was a genuine teen idol during the late '60s and early '70s. Sherman first surfaced as a regular on ABC-TV's mid-'60s rock spectacular Shindig!, then co-starred on the warmhearted program Here Come the Brides. He stormed the pop charts as a vocalist in 1969 and 1970 with the well-produced "Little Woman," "La La La (If I Had You)," "Easy Come, Easy Go," and "Julie, Do Ya Love Me," all four songs credited as million sellers on the Metromedia label. The hits stopped abruptly in 1972, but Sherman continued working, mostly behind the scenes in television; he also took occasional acting roles, and had a long second career as a paramedic. Bobby Sherman died on June 24, 2025; he was 81 years of age. ~ Bill Dahl
