American talk show hostess, actress and business executive.
Born illegitimate and virtually abandoned in the Deep South, she is a living symbol of the self-made person in spite of all odds. She is one of the best known and highest paid entertainers of the '90s with her TV talk show and business ventures. Raised at first by her grandmother on a farm, she was then shuffled between her mom and various kin. She was raped at nine and had five subsequent years of sexual abuse, leading to adolescent rebellion and lifelong insecurity. She gave birth to a baby boy when she was just 14.
