Uggams first started in show business as a child in 1950, playing the niece of Ethel Waters on the television series Beulah. She was a regular on Sing Along with Mitch, starring record producer-conductor Mitch Miller. In 1960, she sang, off-screen, "Give Me That Old Time Religion" in the film Inherit the Wind. She auditioned for the lead part in the film Cleopatra, but lost out to Elizabeth Taylor. The Leslie Uggams Show, a television variety show, added to her list of credits and a lead role in Roots, as Kizzy. Uggams also starred in the 1975 film Poor Pretty Eddie (also called Poor Pretty Eddy, Black Vengeance and Redneck County), in which she played a popular singer who, upon being stranded in the deep South, is abused and humiliated by the perverse denizens of a backwoods town. Uggams appeared several times on The Ed Sullivan Show in the 1960s. Uggams appeared on the TV game show Hollywood Squares and co-hosted Fantasy. She made a notable guest appearance on The Muppet Show during its third season in tandem with Big Bird. During the 1980s she appeared in Blues in the Night and Jerry's Girls, and replaced Patti LuPone as Reno Sweeney in the Lincoln Center revival of Cole Porter's musical Anything Goes. Later Broadway roles include Muzzy in Thoroughly Modern Millie and Ethel Thayer in On Golden Pond at the Cort Theatre. In 1996, Uggams played the role of Rose Keefer on All My Children. She is a member of Delta Sigma Theta sorority. Early in 2009, Uggams made an appearance as the jazz singer Lena Horne in a production of the stage musical Stormy Weather at the Pasadena Playhouse in California.
