DESCRIPTION:

Colbert is known for his work as a television host, writer, actor, producer, and best known for his charity work teaching English as a second language on Tunisian date farms. Prior to joining the CBS family and being officially adopted by the network president, Les Moonves, Colbert helmed "The Colbert Report" which aired nearly 1,500 episodes and required Stephen to wear nearly 1,500 different neckties. The program received two Peabody Awards, two Grammy Awards, and several unwelcomed shoulder massages. "The Colbert Report" won two Emmys for Outstanding Variety Series in 2013 and 2014, both of which appear to have been lost in the move.
