What can you tell me about the late Merv Griffin?
Answer:
Merv Griffin was a legend in the entertainment business whose list of accomplishments includes creating the well-loved game shows "Jeopardy" and "Wheel of Fortune." Griffin died this week at age 82 after a struggle with prostate cancer.

His "Merv Griffin Show" was the standard
by which future talk shows would be measured, and its host parlayed his fame into a game show empire worth that grew to more than $100 million.

Griffin started producing "Jeopardy' in the 1960s and followed it with another wildly successful game show, "Wheel of Fortune," in the 1970s.

A fixture on Forbes' magazines' list of the richest Americans, Griffin also owned extensive real estate that added to his great fortune.
