Actress Betty White, 99, died on 31 December, just a little over two weeks shy of her 100thbirthday. White's career spanned over several decades and is best known for her role as Rose Nylund.

The beloved actress was friends with historic giants of the twentieth century including Lucille Ball and author John Steinbeck.

Before delighting millions of viewers on TV, White began her career on the radio. She opted for radio after being rejected from various casting calls after producers said she was not photogenic enough. Years later she would prove them wrong, going on to win five Primetime Emmy Awards and being inducted into the Television Hall of Fame. As a young girl White had dreamt of becoming a forest ranger with the US Forest Service and was named an honorary ranger in 2009.

After her time in radio, she began hosting variety and talk TV shows with other hosts, and later along,  for which she was nominated for her first Emmy in 1951. In 1954, The Betty White Talk Show was released. This show is historic for how White was able to maintain creative control of the programming and even hired a female director, which at the time was nearly unheard of.
