It has been a long journey for Oprah Gail Winfrey. Born to a poor single unwed mother in rural Mississippi and brought up in an inner city Milwaukee neighborhood, she was abused and molested at the age of 9 and 14. And she still rose to become a media mogul and rated by Business Week in 2005 as one of America’s top 50 philanthropists. At one time she was the world’s only black billionaire. According to some people she is most influential woman in the world. As an Obama supporter she is supposed to have delivered over a million votes in the 2008 Democratic primary race.
