Johnny Carson: King of Late Night
Chronological look at the life and career of Johnny Carson (1925-2005), with comment from an exwife and more than 30 fellow comedians, friends, employees, and biographers. The biography defines why Carson was an enduring celebrity (his cool, his timing, his genuine laugh, and his breadth of knowledge) and reevaluate his motivations and inner self (a loner having a drinking problem, a decent Mid Westerner whose mother withheld approval, a silent person who loved to amuse ). The real key to understanding him, argues the biography, is his love of magical.
