Ellsworth Raymond "Bumpy" Johnson (October 31, 1905 – July 7, 1968) was an American crime boss in the Harlem neighborhood of New York City.

Afraid of a possible lynch mob, his parents mortgaged their tiny home to raise money to send Willie up north to live with relatives.

St. Clair incited a war with her rival, Jewish mob boss Dutch Schultz, for control of Harlem's rackets.

[7][8] Two years later, Jet reported in its crime section that Johnson began his sentence after losing an appeal.

He was at Wells Restaurant in Harlem shortly before 2 a.m., and the waitress had just served him coffee, a chicken leg, and hominy grits, when he fell over clutching his chest.
