Widely regarded as the “king of daytime talk,” Donahue created and hosted *The Phil Donahue Show*, a program that left an indelible mark on television history. Over nearly three decades, Donahue hosted more than 6,000 episodes and interviewed some of the most iconic figures of the time, including Nelson Mandela, Muhammad Ali, and Dolly Parton.
Donahue’s media career began in the late 1950s, but it was in 1967 that he launched his groundbreaking talk show. Originally based in Dayton, Ohio, the show moved to Chicago in 1974 and quickly gained popularity, especially after Donahue began incorporating audience participation. This innovative format became a staple in daytime television.
