One of the very few extraordinary artists honored with Oscar, Tony, Grammy, Golden Globe, and Emmy Awards, Whoopi Goldberg's comic wit surpasses even her stunning list of accolades. Her wise and witty repartee is a daily treat on ABC's "The View," and her many stints as host of the Academy Awards are the stuff of comic legend.
Goldberg's talent as an actress spans the breadth of Broadway hits including A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum and Xanadu; featured television roles on Star Trek: The Next Generation, The Cleaner and Hollywood Squares; and unforgettable film performances in the comedies Sister Act and Soapdish, and stirring dramas The Color Purple and Ghost.
Whoopi Goldberg's inimitable style and outstanding body of work have become part of the tapestry of great American artists and entertainers who both inspire and delight.
