    Florence was the first celebrity I ever saw. I was about 5 years old, and I was in the dining room at the Ojai Valley in and Country Club, and suddenly realized, Florence and her family were dining at the table next to us. Just regular people doing what we were doing. A good lesson for a 5 year old.

    Florence Henderson was very popular because of having been in the show as well as going on talk shows. She came off as a person not only as very pleasent, but someone who cares.
    I heard about when people met her on the street, she was more than cordial. She died about five years ago but when she did the tv show, she took the roll of Carol Brady, the mother, very seriously because she found out that due to the tv show and the way she was towards children in the show, some children saw her as a substitute mother and in their mind made that happen. Which actually did them throughout their lives. Someone recently told me that she was with her parents in a good restaurant and she noticed Florence Henderson was sitting at a table. She asked the mother if she could talk to her and the mother said yes, but wait until after she finishes eating. The child went to her and Florence Henderson immediately responded with love and care.

    Neat how the band struck up "The Sound of Music". I think Florence Henderson was in a stage production of that. This interview is evidently from 1971 or 1972, because The Brady Bunch had already been to the Grand Canyon (1971), but hadn't yet been to Hawaii (1972). Florence Henderson was apparently a genuinely kind person. I love seeing her in The Brady Bunch.

    Back then it seemed like Dick Cavette's show was a lot more authentic than most. I like how she pointed out the imperfections of the business. Hollywood kisses. The Brady Bunch was interesting. Growing up in Brooklyn that show was my window to White people or European Americans if you will;thought all White people was growing up perfect ,no shame. Until I moved to the suburbs. Trying to get to know some of the Caucasian kids. I had a bias way of looking at them. A lot had racist POV on things. It was strange. A lot of what happens today is because of lack of learning about each other History is twisted. So when I watch Good Times that was in my opinion a much better show than the Brady Bunch. I actually enjoyed some of the episodes of the Brady Bunch. Only when they kept it somewhat realistic. Robert Reed was exceptional as the Dad. The kids had it going on. Peter and Jan was my favorite. Peter was a bit rebellious. The House keeper kept it mellow. Not bad. Florence's character kept it light.

      Florence was Maria von Trapp when Julie Andrews was still relatively unknown, at least to American audiences. To many who saw SOM on the stage, Henderson’s performance was so good there was no need to see Andrews star in the movie when it came out years later.
