biography
With her trademark catch phrase “Can we talk?” and her persona as a catty, gossip-loving talk show host and fashionista, Joan Rivers was a pop culture icon for over five decades. From her first 1965 appearance on “The Tonight Show” (NBC, 1954- ), Rivers went on to guest host the late night leader and host her own Emmy-winning daytime talker, “The Joan Rivers Show” (Syndicated, 1989-94). Rivers made a career of poking fun at herself and celebrities as a Vegas headliner, radio talk show host and author of almost 10 humor books before she and daughter Melissa carved out a niche as red carpet
