Marshall, who hosted The Hollywood Squares from 1966 to 1981 and was the first-ever winner of the Daytime Emmy for outstanding game show host in 1974, winning three more times, is ready to take on social media in advance of turning 95 on March 30. "My team says there's a shortage of nonagenarians on twitter & I should join," Marshall tweeted Sunday. "They say it’s fun. To me fun was Vegas in the 50s, Paul Lynde on #HollywoodSquares & singing with a Big Band. I’m not sure about twitter but at almost 95 I'll give it a try."
