A graduate of the Broadcasting Institute of Maryland, Quivers has been in the radio business since 1980, joining Stern in 1981 at DC101. Stern moved around to numerous stations, being fired or quitting during the 1980s. Quivers stood by Stern wherever the show would take them, and continued their partnership.

In 1995, Quivers’ autobiography, titled Quivers: A Life, was published. In the book, Quivers writes about her love-hate relationship with Stern and his radio show crew, as well as her life of growing up in the mean streets of Baltimore.

Quivers also alleges in the book that her father molested her when she was a preteen. She also wrote that she overheard her parents arguing after her mother caught her father molesting another little girl who lived in their neighborhood. Quivers’ father was never arrested or charged with molesting Quivers or any other child. He is now deceased, having suffered from Alzheimer’s in old age.

Quivers signed a television deal with Sony in 2004 for her own talk show. She began to explore independent opportunities during the FCC indecency crackdown earlier in the year. This talk show was supposed to happen in fall 2006 according to what Howard said on Larry King Live, but she revealed on the air in March 2006 that the deal had stalled. She has claimed that a lack of available time slots due to competition from other celebrities who also signed talk show deals was the primary reason for her show’s stalled status.
