White at the Time 100 gala in 2010

Betty White was an American actress and comedian known for her roles on television. White worked longer in the television industry than anyone else and earned herself a Guinness World Record in 2013, having it renewed in 2018.

Her roles on television including Sue Ann Nivens on the CBS sitcom The Mary Tyler Moore Show (1973–1977), Rose Nylund on the NBC sitcom The Golden Girls (1985–1992), and Elka Ostrovsky on the TV Land sitcom Hot in Cleveland (2010–2015). She gained renewed popularity after her appearance in the 2009 romantic comedy film The Proposal (2009), and was asked to host Saturday Night Live in 2010 gaining her a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Guest Actress in a Comedy Series. She was also a staple on many game shows since the mid 1950s.

White died on December 31, 2021 — 17 days short of her 100th birthday, which was was due to be televised in a celebration on January 17, 2022. It was to contain an interview from White, filmed just 10 days prior to her passing. The decision was made to continue with the televised celebration posthumously, thus ending White’s record breaking, 83-year career on television in 2022, breaking her own 2018 world record.
