"It's going to be tough to say goodbye, but I know we will all cherish the shows leading up to Dave's final broadcast in May."

The longest-tenured late night talk show host at more than 32 years, Letterman, who has hosted CBS's LATE SHOW for 22 years, announced his retirement on the April 3 broadcast. Since its CBS premiere on August 30, 1993, Letterman's LATE SHOW has won nine Emmy Awards and a staggering 73 Emmy nominations. Letterman debuted on the late night scene Feb. 1, 1982 with the premiere of his groundbreaking "Late Night with David Letterman," which ran for 11 1/2 years and was honored with five Emmy Awards. As of May 20, 2015, Letterman will have hosted 6,028 total episodes of both "Late Night" and the LATE SHOW.

Widely credited with redefining the talk show genre, Letterman is one of the most influential, acclaimed and honored personalities in television history. In December 2012, Letterman was an honoree at the prestigious "35th Annual Kennedy Center Honors," which recognizes recipients for their lifetime contributions to American culture through the performing arts in dance, music, theater, opera, motion pictures and television. In 1992, he received the prestigious George Foster Peabody Award for taking "one of TV's most conventional and least inventive forms - the talk show - and infusing it with freshness and imagination." In March 2011, Letterman was awarded the prestigious Johnny Carson Award for Comedic Excellence at Comedy Central's first annual "The Comedy Awards." Letterman has also won two American Comedy Awards as Funniest Male Performer in a Television Series, and in 2012, he received the Career Achievement Award from the Television Critics Association.
