分析 本文主要讲述了著名脱口秀节目主持人Oprah不幸的童年生活以及经过自己的努力成为当今传媒界最具影响力的妇女的故事．
Oprah于1954年生于密西西比州，她早年时期与奶奶过着贫困的生活，母亲去世后，便受到了亲戚们不友好的对待；因此童年时期的她非常缺少关爱．后来在严厉的父亲的培养下，开始接受良好的教育，后来从事了媒体行业，在她20几岁的时候，第一次主持谈话节目《People Are Talking》；由于Oprah说起话来就像是自己的家庭成员一样，她没用多久就将一个收视率极低的节目逐渐变成芝加哥收视率最高的谈话节目．另外，她还从事了杂志出版，书籍，教育等方面的工作以及开通了一个针对妇女的生活频道，目的在于改善人们的生活，鼓励和弘扬诚实的价值观，使现在与将来的世界变得更美妙．随着事业的蒸蒸日上，Oprah的财富和影响力也随之增长，2003年她成为美国第一位黑人亿万富翁，也是传媒界最具影响力的女性．
