Quencie Interviews Actor, Cornelius Smith Jr. of ABC's Scandal

/

I interviewed Cornelius Smith Jr. who currently plays Marcus Walker on the ABC hit drama series Scandal at the NAACP Image Awards Nominees luncheon.  You may recognize him for his portrayal of Frankie Hubbard on the ABC daytime drama All My Children since December 2007. He received a Daytime Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Younger Actor in a Drama Series in 2009 and won Outstanding Actor in a Daytime Drama Series in 2019. We talked about what it was like for him as the newest member of the hit show Scandal.

I also asked him what was like for him to work with Kerry Washington on the show. Check out my interview with Cornelius below.
