Letterman Back On The 'Late Show'

David Letterman will return to the Ed Sullivan Theater on Monday to host the "Late Show" now that he's recovered from an eye infection caused by shingles, according to the CBS TV network.

The condition is a viral infection of the nerve roots that typically results in pain and rash. It's caused by the same virus that causes chickenpox.

Letterman, whose late-night talk show has featured a series of guest hosts since Feb. 26, will welcome comedian Billy Crystal and 18-year-old world whistling champion Michael Barimo as his guests on Monday.

He will host all of the week's episodes, CBS said Friday.
