Conan O’Brien

If you do not know who Conan O’Brien is, well, we don’t know what to tell you.  But, it is not such common knowledge that the legendary night show host got his big break from writing episodes for The Simpsons between 1991-93.  Since then, O’Brien, or Coco, has gone on to create, run, and host many of his own late-night shows.
