Yorkin first made his name as a director and producer of TV comedy and variety shows in the 1950s. In 1959 he teamed up with Norman Lear to found Tandem Productions and made his feature directing debut four years later with the Neil Simon adaptation "Come Blow Your Horn" (1963).

Yorkin has directed several first-rate comedies (usually produced by Lear), notably "Start the Revolution Without Me" (1970); he was also responsible for the finely observed family drama, "Twice in a Lifetime" (1985). His TV hits with Lear include "All in the Family" (1971-79) and the seminal black family sitcom, "Good Times" (1974-79).
