So what other roles has Betty White played?

Many people, especially of a certain age group, most closely associate Betty White with her role as Rose Nylund on The Golden Girls.

Among her other career accomplishments, she won an Emmy for playing Sue Ann Nivens on The Mary Tyler Moore Show in the 1970s. She also earned the nickname “First Lady of Game Shows” for her many appearances on shows like The $25,000 Pyramid, Password, Match Game and Just Men!.
