O'Donnell briefly attended Dickinson College before moving to Boston University and then dropping out of college.
Personal life
O'Donnell was a resident of Nyack, New York, after purchasing "Pretty Penny," a Victorian river house that had previously been used as Helen Hayes' home. In 2000, O'Donnell sold the house to businessman Edward M. Kopko. She lives in South Nyack, New York, and has a home in West Palm Beach, Florida.
O'Donnell, a Democrat, is a Democrat. Senator Doug Jones of Alabama, who ran for office, has contributed to several political causes, including the campaign to elect Senator Doug Jones of Alabama.
On several occasions, O'Donnell has been outspoken about controversial topics. On September 11, 2001, she expressed her displeasure with the World Trade Center's investigation into the September 11, 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center, criticizing the NIST's conclusions and questioned the US government's involvement in the tragedy.
She appeared on Will & Grace's January 31, 2002 appearance as a lesbian mother. Caroline O'Donnell came out as a lesbian at the Ovarian Cancer Research benefit, a month later. ... I'm not sure why people make such a big fuss about the gay thing. "People are perplexed, they're shocked to learn that this is a big surprise to someone." The announcement came two months before the end of her talk show. Although she also mentioned the need to bring a face to gays and lesbians, her main aim was to bring more attention to LGBTQ adoption issues. O'Donnell is a foster and adoptive mother. She protested against adoption companies, particularly in Florida, who refused to give gay and lesbian parents the right to adoptive.
In a PrimeTime Thursday episode on March 14, 2002, Diane Sawyer talked to O'Donnell. O'Donnell told USA Today that she wanted to talk to Sawyer because she wanted an investigative piece on Florida's ban on gay adoption. "I would like to talk about my personal life and how (the case) pertains to me," Sawyer told Sawyer. She talked to two gay men in Florida who were unable to have a foster child removed from their household. Since Florida banned gay or bisexual couples from adopting, a state statute would not allow them to adopt. Any LGBTQ activists who cited O'Donnell's appearance on The Rosie O'Donnell Show as deceptive. "I told him to mow my lawn and offer me a lemonade," the woman explained in her behavior. I never said that I wanted to blow him." After leaving her show and going out, O'Donnell returned to stand-up comedy and cut her hair. O'Donnell told the public that her haircut was supposed to be a copy of former Culture Club backup singer Helen Terry's haircut.
O'Donnell was named Person of the Year by The Advocate in 2002, and she became a regular columnist for the magazine in May 2003. "Today, Rosie's long and brave career has led her not only to the magazine's People of the Year Award for 2002, but also as a columnist," the magazine's editor-in-chief, Judy Wieder said.
In a September 26 tweet thanking Senator Lindsey Graham's appointment as an Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court, O'Donnell was chastised for using a "gay slur." "F--u closeted idiot," the quote reads – this is the patriarchy exposed – in reality, we live with it. #NoKavanaughConfirmation #NotMyPresident" is the current president's name in the United States. Kavanaugh was eventually confirmed.
Parker Jaren O'Donnell, O'Donnell's first child, was adopted as an infant in 1995. Later, Kelli Carpenter adopted Parker. Parker is an aficionado of military history, and his mother was able to send him to Valley Forge Military Academy in 2011.
In San Francisco two weeks after Mayor Gavin Newsom approved the granting of marriage licenses to same-sex couples, O'Donnell married Carpenter, a former Nickelodeon marketing executive. Carpenter's decision to come to San Francisco to marry Carpenter was seen as a demonstration of rebellion against former President George W. Bush's endorsement of the Federal Marriage Amendment. "We were both inspired to come here after the sitting President made the derogatory and derogatory remarks she made," she said in 2004. Susan Leal, one of the city's highest-ranking lesbians, was married by the San Francisco Gay Men's Chorus, and they were formally welcomed by the San Francisco Gay Men's Chorus. "We applied for spousal privilege and were refused by the state," O'Donnell said during the trial over Rosie magazine in part because they were no closer to friends. As a result, all that I wrote to Kelli, every letter that I wrote to her, every e-mail, every correspondence, and meeting were all entered into the record. I am now and will forever be a huge supporter of gay rights.
Carpenter and O'Donnell have four children together. Mia, a 1997 girl, was adopted by the family in 2000 and revealed plans to adopt her. Mia was evicted from their house in 2001, and O'Donnell has since been trying to bring an end to the Florida statute prohibiting same-sex adoption.
Carpenter had been relocated from their house in 2007, according to O'Donnell in mid-November 2009. The couple's marriage ended in August 2004, when it was one of the thousands questioned by the California Supreme Court.
In mid-2011, O'Donnell started dating Michelle Rounds, a 40-year-old executive-search consultant. O'Donnell revealed to her studio audience on December 5, 2011, during a break in The Rosie Show's taping. On June 9, 2012, the two wed in a private ceremony in New York. The couple announced on January 9, 2013 that they had adopted a baby girl. Representatives for O'Donnell announced on February 6, 2015, that she and Rounds had broken apart in November of this year. After two years of marriage, O'Donnell applied for divorce from Rounds in February 2015. In October 2015, they announced their divorce. The child was given complete custody by O'Donnell. On September 15, 2017, roundworms died by suicide.
Chelsea, O'Donnell's 17-year-old daughter, and her therapy dog went missing from her Nyack, New York home in August 2015. Chelsea was discovered in Barnegat, New Jersey, a week later.
O'Donnell developed a staph infection after accidentally cutting a price tag off a fishing pole in the summer of 2000. The infection kept her incapacitated for weeks and resulted in doctors amputating her hand. She later said that George W. Bush was to blame for the virus, adding that she was planning to go fishing at the time in order not to see Bush on television during the then-ongoing 2000 Republican National Convention. During the fall and winter months with seasonal affective disorder, O'Donnell has confessed to her struggles with recurrent major depressive episodes.

Career
From 1979 to 1984, O'Donnell performed as a stand-up comedian in clubs. On Larry King Live, she got her first big break on Star Search.
After this success, she moved into television sitcoms, making her debut on Gimme a Break as Nell Harper's neighbor. In 1986, a school in the United States was founded. She appeared on VH1's list of veejays in 1988. She began hosting a series for VH1, Stand-up Spotlight, a showcase for up-and-coming comedians. Melissa Gilbert appeared in Stand By Your Man, a Fox Network sitcom co-starring Melissa Gilbert in 1992. The show bombed, just as O'Donnell's film career took off. In 1992, O'Donnell made her film debut with A League of Their Own (1992), alongside Tom Hanks, Geena Davis, and Madonna. She had been initially considered for the role of Mary Sanderson in Disney's Hocus Pocus, but it was eventually given to Kathy Najimy. On her blog, O'Donnell said she turned down the opportunity to work with Bette Midler because she refused to be a frightening evil witch. She has performed in a variety of roles throughout her career: she appeared in Sleepless in Seattle as Meg Ryan's best friend; as Betty Rubble in The Flintstones' live-action film version of Meg Ryan's Toe; and as a female gorilla named Terk in Disney's Tarzan's M. Night Shyamalan as a baseball-loving nun.
On Seinfeld, O'Donnell was considered for the role of Elaine Benes.
She formed KidRo Productions in 1996 and hosted The Rosie O'Donnell Show, a daytime talk show. The performance was extremely successful, winning multiple Emmy Awards, as well as her owning the title of "The Queen of Nice" for her light-hearted banter with her guests and audience interactions. O'Donnell often launched koosh balls at the crowd and camera as part of her playful banter with her studio audience. She also remarked that Tom Cruise sparked an infatuation.
O'Donnell demonstrated her passion for Broadway musicals and plays by inviting cast members as guests, encouraging the audience to attend performances, premiering production numbers, and even promoting shows with ticket giveaways by residing in New York City.
Following the Columbine shootings, O'Donnell became a vocal promoter of gun control and a key figure in the Million Mom March. "You are not allowed to own a weapon," she said on her talk show's April 19, 1999 airing, "I think you should go to jail." "I don't personally own a rifle," O'Donnell had said, but "I have no problem" if you are licensed, licensed, and registered. O'Donnell interviewed Tom Selleck, who was promoting The Love Letter in May 1999, a month after the Columbine shootings. O'Donnell confronted O'Donnell about his latest unpaid work for the National Rifle Association (NRA) and challenged him about the NRA's policy on the use of "assault weapons." The conversation had "not gone the way I had expected," she said, adding, "I apologize because it was not a personal attack." It was supposed to raise the issue because it is in the forefront of so many people today." At the time, O'Donnell, who at the time worked as a multi-million dollar paid spokesperson for five years for Kmart, the country's biggest volume firearms store, was located in the United States. The cast from Annie Get Your Gun was supposed to appear on the program, but the producer "I can shoot a partridge with a single cartridge" was turned down, and instead, "My Defenses Are Down."
O'Donnell resigned as their spokeswoman in 1999 after gun enthusiasts argued that she should not be the spokesperson for the country's biggest gun store. Kmart sells hunting rifles, not handguns or assault rifles, not assault weapons, according to O'Donnell, who supports this. Both Kmart and O'Donnell denied publicly that Kmart had terminated the service. In May 2000, O'Donnell's bodyguard applied for a concealed weapon license. O'Donnell said the security firm retained by Warner Bros. obtained the weapon. O'Donnell said that because of dangers, she and her family need protection.
Following the September 11, 2001 attacks, Broadway and tourism in New York City was affected, and many shows were in danger of closing. O'Donnell was one of many in the entertainment business who encouraged viewers to visit and support the performing arts. She declared that she would donate 1 million dollars to support the rescue efforts and that others in the industry and civilian alike are encouraged to "give until it hurts."
She resigned from her talk show in 2002. The Caroline Rhea Show, which starred comedian Caroline Rhea, was renamed to the program, which lasted for one season.
O'Donnell appeared on "The Bowtie," a segment of HBO's Curb Your Enthusiasm.
O'Donnell took over Meredith Vieira as co-host and moderator of The View, a daytime women-oriented talk show, in September 2006. Star Jones, a co-show co-host, has resigned, though some analysts, who doubt Jones' conservative views, will remain in constant conflict with O'Donnell's more liberal counterpoint. As Jones had argued, O'Donnell debating Jones' route of rapid weight loss, alleging that it must have been through gastric bypass surgery rather than starving and exercising alone. (Jones later reported that surgery was involved). O'Donnell is credited with helping the show's "buzz factor" keep the show's "buzz factor" up. She is also known for making it more news-focused, though it also adopted the "fluff" of daytime TV talk shows (celebrities, fashion, and food). Despite a general downward trend for most daytime television shows, during O'Donnell's first year on The View, the views increased by 27% by 27 percent. With an average of 3.4 million viewers, the show was the fourth-most-watched in all of daytime in the primary demographic of women aged 18-49, with record ratings in the total viewer category, up 15% over the previous year. The show's opening "Hot Topics" segment, where news items were discussed, was moderated by O'Donnell. O'Donnell's show gave the show a more political twist, and she and fellow comedian Joy Behar frequently expressed skepticism of former President Bush's domestic and foreign policies, including the Iraq war. Elisabeth Hasselbeck, as a conservative counterpoint, will often promote the Bush administration's policies, and the two will collide in an adversarial contest.
O'Donnell was encouraged by the show to be outspoken, and at one point said, "radical Christianity is just as harmful as radical Islam." O'Donnell referred to the sexual harassment case in the Catholic Archdiocese of Boston, resulting in $157 million to 983 claimants on February 24, 2003, saying, "I hope the Catholic Church gets sued before time." Perhaps, we should melt down some of the gold toilets in the Pope's Vatican and dismiss some of the charges because the entire tenet of living a Christ-like life has been lost in Catholicism.
In co-host Behar's booze-infused priest remarks, O'Donnell joked about communion rituals. The panel heard in Gonzales vs. Carhart that the Supreme Court upheld the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act on April 19, 2007. "If men could get pregnant abortion would be a sacrament," O'Donnell said rhetorically, "How many Supreme Court judges are Catholic?" "How can we distinguish church and state?" says the author. Several conservative commentators characterized her remarks as "anti-Catholic bigotry" and said that such remarks against other faiths would not be tolerated. O'Donnell's outspokenness and spontaneity sometimes led to her views being recirculated by other media outlets, including O'Donnell. O'Donnell, who has often been portrayed unfavorably by conservative media outlets and what she described as Republican pundits, has expressed disappointment that her comments were overlooked over more important national and global issues.
In China, O'Donnell imitated newscasters using a series of ching chongs. Vanessa Hua of the San Francisco Chronicle expressed disappointment in O'Donnell, considering the comedian's promotion of LGBT rights. "Some people have told me it's as bad as the n-word," O'Donnell apologised to those who were offended on December 14, saying that "some people have told me it's as bad as the n-word."I was like, really?
I had no idea that there was one. "I have a fair chance I'll do something like this again," O'Donnell said, but not on purpose. Only because my brain works.' It's been described as a "pseudo-apology" by Time. "I wish I had been a bit more sincere in my public apology," O'Donnell wrote later in Celebrity Detox.O'Donnell chastised Donald Trump for calling a press conference to reinstate Miss USA Tara Conner, who had breached pageant rules, accusing him of using her controversy to "generate buzz for the Miss USA Pageant" (to which he has the right) by announcing that she would get a second shot. O'Donnell said that due to Trump's numerous marriages and questionable company bankruptcies, he was not a moral authority for young people in America. "Left the first wife had an affair," she said. The second wife of the first husband had an affair, but the moral compass for 20-year-olds in America is strong." In reaction, Trump launched a "vicious" mass media campaign in which he appeared on several television shows, either in person or by phone, threatening to sue O'Donnell (he never did). He screamed her names, threatened to divorce her partner Kelli, and told Barbara Walters that she regretted her appointment. Walters was trapped in the middle as a social acquaintance of Trump, and O'Donnell did not feel that Walters defended her enough, causing what both women said was an unfortunate encounter in one of the dressing rooms. "I had pain and pain, as well as rejection," O'Donnell said, "sometimes [my emotions] overwhelm me." "I get flooded sometimes." Walters denied that she was dissatisfied with O'Donnell, saying, "I never regretted, nor do I now regret," Rosie O'Donnell's selection.
O'Donnell would leave the show before the year's end because of the inability to find an agreement on a new deal, according to ABC on April 25, 2007.
O'Donnell slammed several of Bush administration's programs, particularly the war in Iraq and the resulting occupation. In addition, she challenged the official explanation for the World Trade Center's demise, claiming, "I do believe that this is the first time in history that fire has ever melted steel." She frequently referred to recent military deaths and reports about the war, as well as the United States' media for the lack of interest in these topics in comparison to media coverage around the world. "The most controversial moment of her professional life" resulted in a flurry of debate with co-host Hasselbeck. "655,000 Iraqi civilians were killed," O'Donnell yelled on May 17, 2007.Who are the terrorists?
"What would you call us if you were in Iraq and another region, the United States, the world's richest country, invaded your country and killed 655,000 of your citizens." Conservative commentators slammed O'Donnell's remarks, alleging that she was comparing American soldiers to terrorists. "Do you think our troops are terrorists," O'Donnell wondered, partly because of Elisabeth Hasselbeck's inability to shield O'Donnell from the allegations; O'Donnell asked Hasselbeck. Hasselbeck answered in the negative, but later added, "Defend your own insinuations." O'Donnell was distraught and felt Hasselbeck had betrayed her friendship: "There's something about them being different on television than you are in the dressing room." It didn't really ring true for me." If they disagreed, O'Donnell said that Republican pundits were mischaracterizing her remarks and that the right-wing media would portray her as a bully, attacking "innocent pure Christian Elisabeth" whenever they disagreed. O'Donnell decided to leave the show the day early, but later said that the reason was not the argument itself, but rather the fact that the camera had shown a split screen, with her and Hasselbeck on either side. O'Donnell felt that the show's producer and producer "had to plan it in advance." I felt like I was being eggeyed into that position. The executive producer and I were not familiar with this," says the author. On May 25, 2007, O'Donnell and ABC decided to shorten her employment deal. According to ABC News, her arguments with Hasselbeck earned the show's highest ratings ever.Time magazine ranked O'Donnell on their annual list of the 100 Most Influential People in May 2007. "Frankly, most celebrities are annoying... and I suppose I am the most annoying, but whatever." O'Donnell responded by a PARADE reader's survey "The Most Annoying Celebrity of 2007" says the author.
The View received an Emmy Award for "Outstanding Special Class Writing" for a specially themed Autism story that O'Donnell helped create in 2008. Janette Barber, O'Donnell's longtime companion and writer, accepted the award on behalf of herself and the other two recipients, Christian McKiernan and Andrew Smith.
On her website Rosie.com, O'Donnell began a video blog named Jahero, answering fan concerns, giving behind-the-scenes information, and even acting as a video diary. They were soon joined by Janette Barber, a Rosie O'Donnell Show writer, who was initially starring only O'Donnell and her hair and make-up artist Helene Macaulay. They were occasionally co-hosts of View co-hosts Joy Behar, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, and Barbara Walters occasionally appeared in a name made up of the first two letters of each of their first names. Jenny McCarthy appeared for a brief period of time, as have Hasselbeck's mother-in-law and O'Donnell's mother-in-law, as well as Kelli's (now) ex-wife Kelli's mother. Kathy Griffin was also on the show, where she read some of the questions. It became so popular that O'Donnell and her design staff created a "on the go" version of the video blog that used fan-submitted suggestions. O'Donnell came in first in the 2007 Blogger's Choice Awards for "best celebrity blogger" category, which she accepted.
When O'Donnell resigned from CBS' game show The Price Is Right, O'Donnell expressed interest in swapping long-serving host Bob Barker. Barker was a regular attender on her talk show and told reporters that she "would make a superb host." Barker said he had "endorsed" her as a "possible replacement" even though it had been reported that he had no involvement in selecting his replacement, although Barker denied it. She said on her blog that it was not going to happen, and that she was reluctant to uproot her family to move to California.
