Kelly Carlin is the only child resulting from Hosbrook’s marriage to Carlin.

Her professional career started as a production assistant and photographer for two of her father’s early HBO specials: George Carlin: Again! and Carlin on Campus.

She earned a B.A. in Communications Studies from UCLA in 1993 after divorcing her first spouse Andrew Sutton. The following year, she and her second husband, Robert McCall,  co-wrote the episode George Pulls the Plug for the second season of The George Carlin Show.

She considered producing an oral biography of her father’s life based on accounts from friends and relatives after his death. However, by December 2008, she had changed her mind and decided to work on her own memoirs.
