Bill Withers - Personal Life

Personal Life

Withers married actress Denise Nicholas in 1973, during her stint as the main actress of the popular sitcom Room 222. The couple divorced the following year.

During the professional semi-hiatus which began in the late 1970s, Withers concentrated more on personal matters than on professional recording. In 1976, he married Marcia Johnson and they had two children, Todd and Kori. Marcia eventually assumed the direct management of his Beverly Hills-based publishing companies, in which his children also became involved as they became adults.
