Judge Greg Mathis gained widespread recognition for his syndicated reality courtroom show Judge Mathis, which aired from 1999 to 2023. Born on April 5, 1960, in Detroit, Michigan, Mathis overcame a troubled youth involving gangs and criminal activities to eventually become the youngest person to be appointed a judge in Michigan’s 36th District Court.
During an episode of his reality TV series Mathis Family Matters in 2023, Greg disclosed that Linda and her family played a significant role in his departure from street life. The former court official revealed that he learned how to be a man through the wisdom imparted by Linda’s father.
