Comedian, TV host and CEO Joan Rivers is an icon of American culture. She is a bestselling author, Emmy Award-winning talk show host, Tony-nominated actress, Celebrity Apprentice winner, writer, director, and savvy businesswoman who has overcome great odds to reinvent herself and her career time and time again.
Rivers performs her trademark stand-up comedy act in front of sold-out audiences in the U.S. and abroad, and as a speaker, Rivers gives audiences a frank, touching and hilarious look at her life and the challenges she has met during almost 50 years in show business.
Rivers hosted The Late Show Starring Joan Rivers, as well as the Emmy Award winning The Joan Rivers Show, and wrote the bestsellers Bouncing Back and Still Talking. She went on to co-host Joan and Melissa: On the Red Carpet, and became CEO of a thriving international enterprise, Joan Rivers Worldwide, which produces some of QVC’s most successful brands. Her autobiographical play, The Joan Rivers Theatre Project: A Work in Progress by a Life in Progress, had a successful run in the US and the UK.
Using the business expertise she’s developed over the years, Rivers won the 2009 season of The Celebrity Apprentice. This year she released her ninth and tenth books, Murder at the Academy Awards and Men Are Stupid...And They Like Big Boobs, and hosted the reality TV series, How’d You Get So Rich. At an age when many entertainers are rendered irrelevant by trends or tabloid scrutiny, Rivers continues to beat the odds and is enjoying more success than ever.
