Unapologetic Opulence (Robin Leach)
Episode description
This person died in 2018 at age 76. He sold children’s shoes briefly at Lord & Taylor in New York before getting a job with The Daily News. He was widely recognized and just as widely parodied. He had a distinctive, British-accented voice and exuberant, exclamation-point delivery. He was a symbol of unapologetic opulence. For over 12 years, he profiled the lives of the wealthy as host and creator of “Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous.” Today's dead celebrity is Robin Leach.
