Oprah Winfrey is literally one of the most famous people in the planet and a firm staple in pop culture. Oprah Winfrey is the internationally renowned host of the Oprah Winfrey Show which has helped span the Oprah Book Club, Oprah Magazine, and Oprah's Angel Network. Why is Oprah so popular? Could it be that she portrays herself as a genuine, down-to-earth individual that's easy to relate to? After all, people are certainly encouraged to write Oprah.

The Oprah biography is like a rags to riches tale that is reminiscent of what the essence of the "American Dream" is. Growing up in poverty, Oprah Winfrey battled with her demons early on.

She was sexually abused as a youngster and became pregnant as a teenager, only to lose the baby. She somehow excelled in school through her perseverance and brilliance which lead her to receive a scholarship to go to college.

Now, Oprah's truly trying to give back to the world. Oprah has opened Oprah Winfrey's Leadership Academy for Girls and despite the sexual abuse scandal that involved one of the matrons, Oprah's school is bouncing back from the tragedy. We can only see if Oprah Winfrey will inspire these girls to follow Oprah's biography and transform themselves into the movers and shakers of the world.
