Carol Burnett, an iconic American actor and comedian, is best known for her groundbreaking comedy-variety show, The Carol Burnett Show, which ran from 1967 to 1978. At 91, Burnett is still captivating audiences with her role in the Apple TV+ series Palm Royale, a drama set in 1969 Palm Beach, Florida.
Born on April 26, 1933, in San Antonio, Texas, Burnett was raised by her grandmother due to her parents’ alcoholism. They moved to Hollywood in the 1940s, and Burnett studied theatre at the University of Southern California.
Her big break came in 1957 on The Ed Sullivan Show with a comedic song that spoofed young women’s adoration for heartthrob Elvis Presley, making her an overnight sensation.
