Edward Francis Jemison, Jr. (born November 25, 1963) is an American film and television actor.

He is known for his roles as Livingston Dell in the Ocean's film trilogy and Mickey Duka in The Punisher, as well as the television series Hung, iZombie and Chicago Med.

Jemison was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, the son of Rosalie (née Centanni) and Edward Francis Jemison, Sr. and is of Irish and Italian descent.

He was raised in Kenner, Louisiana, and attended a Catholic secondary school, Archbishop Rummel High School.

He graduated from Louisiana State University where he was a member of the Delta Chi fraternity.

As an actor in films, Jemison's major breakthrough was the Ocean's franchise, a series of movies in which he played Livingston Dell.

1990

In the mid-1990s, before launching a film career, he starred in a series of Bud Light commercials with the tagline "Yes, I am".

This catchphrase, "Yes, I am," has stuck to Jemison over the years, to the point that he became a little weary of being the "Yes, I am" guy.

Other major commercial credits for Jemison included a Wheaties commercial with basketball star Michael Jordan and an appearance alongside football star Joe Montana.

Online, Jemison starred in the web series Self Storage.

Jemison has also appeared on Late Night with David Letterman.

2013

He made his directorial debut in 2013 with an independent film called King of Herrings, starring himself and longtime friends Joe Chrest and John Mese, who both also came out of LSU's theatre department.

Jemison's wife, Laura Lamson, co-starred in the film as well.
