For over a decade, Harvard scholar Henry Louis Gates, Jr. has worked to expand America’s sense of itself through a national conversation about identity. In “Finding Your Roots,” Gates continues this quest by diving into the ancestry of celebrities and public figures in order to discover the connections that bind us all. Past guests have included Kristen Bell, Michael Imperioli, Sheryl Lee Ralph, Amanda Seyfried, Dax Shepard, and others.
In the upcoming episode, Sherman will explore his ancestry alongside fellow chef José Andrés, uncovering new revelations about his family’s history along the way.
Tune into PBS on Feb. 4 at 7 p.m. CDT for the episode’s premiere.
