Arsenio Hall
The Arsenio Hall Show premiered on this day in 1989 as the first late-night talk show hosted by an African American. The show’s signature moment was when Bill Clinton, then running for the presidency, appeared on the show and played “Heartbreak Hotel” on his saxophone. As we know, Bill Clinton went on to win the 1992 presidential election.
