Hillary Clinton
to appear on season premiere of Ellen show

Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton will join Ellen DeGeneres for the season premiere of her show September 4, the first time Clinton will appear on a daytime talk show since launching her presidential bid.

The New York senator last appeared on the syndicated The Ellen DeGeneres Show in October 2005, on another DeGeneres visit to New York. Clinton offered DeGeneres a subway fare card and a tourist map of the city, and the two dished about seeing theater together and going to clubs.

Throughout her career, Clinton has been a frequent guest on daytime talk shows with largely female audiences. She appeared on ABC's The View late last year to promote the rerelease of her book It Takes a Village and made appearances on several shows to promote her best-selling memoir, Living History, in 2003.
