George Carlin

Edgy comedian George Denis Patrick Carlin was known for an act featuring 'seven dirty words' that became the focus of a Supreme Court case. He won Grammy Awards; he was the host for the first episode of Saturday Night Live. And his envelope-pushing and pointed politics helped pave the way for comedians from Richard Pryor to Cheech and Chong to Eddie Murphy to Chris Rock to Bill Maher.
