Emmy Award-winning comedian, best-selling author, reality star and actress Kathy Griffin has yet to meet a celebrity that she won't mock in the name of humor. She's got a gift for making fun of her own life, too, all the way back to her birth on November 4, 1960, in the Chicago burbs. This famous funny lady is also a highly recognized advocate for the LGBT community.
