Phil Lewis: biography (briefly)

The actor was born on September 4, 1968 in African Uganda. Father Delano Lewis was an American plenipotentiary in Nigeria and, on duty, moved with his family from place to place.

Phil Lewis began acting in films at the age of eighteen. Participation in television series, as well as the performance of minor and episodic roles in feature films made him an indispensable and trouble-free actor "on the hook." The directors always knew where to find the performer of small roles or a noticeable participant in the crowd.

In 2005, Phil Lewis became "Mr. Mosby" and remains so to this day. It was that rare case when one character has lived in the cinema for many years, delighting millions of viewers with his presence on the screen.

Mr. Mosby

The character of the good-natured hotel administrator under the playful name "Tip-Top" did not appear immediately. Mr. Mosby (then he was not yet Mr. Mosby) began his career at the hotel with a messenger in the early seventies. It so happened that he owes his career advancement to a little girl named London, the daughter of the owner of the Tip-Top hotel. The future hotel manager taught the little girl to walk, then talk.

At the next stage, London learned to read under the guidance of Mr. Mosby, tried to learn how to drive a car (also under his supervision). In his eyes, the girl crashed the car.

Zach and Cody, the twelve-year-old twins, are also closely watched by Mr. Mosby. The boys live in the Tip-Top Hotel, as their mother, Carrie, is a singer and sings in the hotel restaurant. He sings well and therefore has a long-term contract concluded with the owner of the hotel.

Another constant concern for Mr. Mosby is his older brother Spencer, completely unsuitable for life shredding. Of course, the hotel manager is trying to help a close relative. He settled him in one of the rooms and is courting him in every way. Mr. Mosby's niece, a sixteen-year-old candy delivery woman, lives there too.

The main character, in addition to the irresistible craving for charity, has a number of advantages: he dances well and loves to play golf.
