Yep, that’s 2010 Oscar-nominee Morgan Freeman as rhyming ‘n’ dancing “Easy Reader” on the old educational TV show The Electric Company.
His song and dance partner there is Oscar/Tony/Emmy/Grammy winner Rita Moreno. As you can clearly see, the 1970s were preternaturally groovy.
Morgan Freeman went on from there to be the president of the United States (Deep Impact), God (Bruce Almighty) and Nelson Mandela (Invictus).
