Oprah Winfrey has many different talents that distinguish her from the average person. She uses these talents to help and contribute to the world. Oprah grew up on a small farm in Mississippi with her strict grandmother. Her parents were never married and broke up shortly after she was born. She was exceptionally bright even as a young girl and had many communication skills.
Oprah lived with her grandmother until she was six. Though her grandmother was very hard on her, Oprah says she played a large role in who she grew up to be. Oprah knew from a young age that she was going to help people and that she had a higher calling. When she was very young, she would speak in front of her whole church without fear and doing this helped her realize what her skills were. As she grew older, her wide range of talents became more apparent.
Today Oprah is well-known for being the host of "The Oprah Winfrey Show" and for her magazine, "The O". She is thought to have popularized and revolutionized the tabloid talk show while creating deep connections with her interviewees and audiences. She has been listed as one of the most influential women as well as voted greatest black philanthropist. The power of her opinion has even been dubbed "The Oprah Effect." Throughout this website you will find other information about her skills and talents. Click on the tabs on the left to learn more!
