George Carlin's Daughter Reveals Secrets About Her Famous Father

STUDIO CITY (CBS) — Kelly Carlin, daughter of George Carlin, stopped by the KCAL9 studios Monday to talk about her show, A Carlin Home Companion: Growing up with George.

Through storytelling, classic video footage, and family memorabilia, Kelly Carlin, the only child of iconoclastic comedian George Carlin, chronicles over 40 years of her life with her famous father. A funny, poignant and honest look at the man who not only redefined 20th century comedy, but inspired generations of comedy fans with such classic routines as Hippie Dippie Weatherman, Class Clown, The Seven Dirty Words, A Place for Your Stuff, and Modern Man.

Kelly reveals what it was like to be swept up into the life and career of her father from his early days as a straight comic through his transformation into a counter culture hero and iconoclastic social commentator to the very last days of his life.
