| Abstract
|
:
|
The dapper host of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?, the most popular game show in television history, and Live! With Regis is admired by an incredibly diverse fan base: old-timers love his cantankerous outlook on life; middle-aged men want to be him and middle-aged women want to marry him; younger viewers love his hip-to-be-square attitude. This biography looks at Philbin's personal and professional life. During his slow rise through the television ranks, he got little respect and recognition for his talk show innovations. Even his name was the fodder of jokes. It was hi.
