Known as the undisputed queen of talk shows, Oprah Winfrey’s life has been a roller-coaster journey.
Born into poverty in downtown Mississippi to a single mother, Winfrey was molested as a child. She had a son at age 14 but lost him. She was later sent to live with her father in Tennessee.
At age 19, she landed a radio job while in high school, becoming a co-anchor for the local evening news. She was re-assigned to the daytime talk show, which exposed her to a world of opportunities.
As a talk show host, she popularized and revolutionized modern-day TV. She is also into philanthropic ventures. Winfrey is currently one of the richest women in the world.
