    I remember back in ‘83 watching that interview she spoke of with Eddie Murphy, and him without any furniture, and he and Barbara sitting on the floor. She had a great quality to her interviews. They were never dull, always fascinating, and unmistakably grounded and personal. Her specials were a big deal back then, and for so many years afterwards, with celebrities, athletes, world leaders, and so many people of note. Perhaps the only interesting person we never got to see her interview was herself. Funny how we tend to appreciate someone extraordinary so much more when they’re gone.

      I can only imagine the grief felt by Dave and Co. As well as all that genuinely knew Barbara. My prayers go out to you all and, of course, her family. Like most, I grew up watching her as a teen in the 70's and thru the years. She certainly blessed us with some of the most memorable and iconic moments in our most recent history and her legacy as a groundbreaking female journalist, is unquantifiable with any measure. Thank you Barbara and may you rest in peace ✌️💚

    Great :-) I would love to see her appearance in 2005ish when she talked about visiting Martha Stewart in prison. Dave had such a wonderful line he used when they talked about getting older: "The patina of time makes the heart grow fonder". It's certainly true.

    An amazingly true Dinosaurus Rectumus. Wawa will truly be mist. Surrounded by trolls, she died peacefully in my sleep. Happy New Year grand lady:) Her love for Roy Cohen, the most giving, kind, empathetic, and respected man alive (and Nancy & Donald Regan's best friend of all time) was unparcelled and the closest that two men ever got together without getting AIDS! Barbra was master class in masculine integrety. Her devotion to Roy Cohen, the love of her short life, only echos and validates her sound judgement and meticulous awe whilst shadowed and bathed in the divine and beautiful, Ms. Cohen, the Emperor of all angels.
