About Harvey's guest:
Today’s special guest, Stefanie Powers, is a beloved actress, author and animal welfare advocate, whose been a major presence in the entertainment world since she was a contract player at Columbia Pictures at the age of 16.
She’s appeared in 31 movies, including “Die, Die My Darling”, “McLintock”, “The Magnificent Seven Ride”, “Herbie Rides Again”, “Escape to Athena”, “Jump”, “The Artist’s Wife”, and many more.
She’s co-starred with great screen legends like John Wayne, Maureen O’Hara, Lana Turner, Ava Gardner, Bing Crosby, Sammy Davis Jr. and Glenn Ford. Her television career includes over 25 mini-series, 200 guest starring appearances, 35 made-for-TV movies, and THREE TV series.
Her first show, “The Girl from UNCLE”, was the first hour-long American TV series starring a woman in the leading role. She then went on to star in “The Feather and Father Gang”.
But she is perhaps best remembered as Jennifer Hart on the blockbuster long-running TV series “Hart to Hart”, for which she was nominated for TWO Emmy Awards and FIVE Golden Globe Awards.
She’s appeared on stage in London’s West End and throughout the country, in many highly acclaimed productions including “How the Other Half Loves”, “View From the Bridge”, “Matador”, “On Golden Pond”, “The King and I”, and of course, “Love Letters”, co-starring Robert Wagner, in a hugely successful national tour, for which she won the Sarah Siddons Award. She’s written award-winning screenplays, and she recorded a wonderful CD with the legendary jazz artist, Page Cavanaugh, called “On the Same Page”.

She’s a passionate lover of travel, and speaks 7 languages, including KISWAHILI and Mandarin.
But her greatest passion is her lifelong devotion to animal preservation and protection. She’s the founder and president of the William Holden Wildlife Foundation, continuing the groundbreaking species conservation work and education programs in Kenya, honouring the legacy of her beloved longtime partner, mentor and best friend, William Holden. She’s intensely involved, at a grassroots level, with a number of zoos and wildlife organizations, whose mission is to protect and preserve endangered species, who are in great peril of extinction.
And she’s received dozens of international honours for her tireless commitment to this vitally important cause.

Who is still watching _Hart To Hart_ in 2022 ? 😍😍 I am! 🥰 Love Jonathan and Jennifer.. and Max.. and Freeway.
Thank you so much for watching
@@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980 Thanks for informative i/view with Miss Powers. Thanks for the setting where your guests speak so freely and openly. I enjoyed Robert Wagner i/v too. I watched it straight after.
I greatly appreciate you letting me know how much you enjoy our show. Thank you so much!!
They don't make them like Stefanie anymore. Class, intelligence, wit, and beauty, she really is a national treasure.
Beautifully said. Thank you so much for watching
Folks, I know I say this a lot, but THIS interview is one of our very best. Stefanie Powers is an irrepressible force of nature: a brilliant raconteur, an insightful commentator on the lamentable state of the current TV industry, and a passionate advocate for animal conservation and the environment. This interview is long, but our production team decided not to edit anything out, because what she has to say is so vitally important. Trust me, Stefanie Powers is definitely worth an hour of your time. I hope you'll post comments and give me your thoughts about this interview.
This is one of your best interviews, was she still in Kenya it looks like she is, she loves it there, this foundation is amazing.
You might be interested in 'the HERD' South African Elephant Orphanage.
Thank you so much for the very kind compliment. Yes I definitely think this was one of our most compelling interviews.
Thank you for bringing this organization to my attention
Harvey, thank you I think you may remember after RJ interview I asked if you could get Stefanie and you said you been trying, thank you , it must be hard as she was in Kenya
I’ve watched a lot of interviews with Ms. Powers. This one ranks right at the top. You clearly did your homework. You were thorough & asked insightful questions. Perhaps most importantly, you sat back & let her speak. You gave the audience the kind of sitting at her feet & soaking it all in experience that most of us will never get otherwise. Thank you!
Thank you so much for your very kind comments about my interviewing style. I’m so grateful for your support.
Congratulations on a brilliant interview. Such a wonderful lady, and so nice to see and hear an interviewer who has (a) done their homework (b) listens to what the Stefanie has to say and doesn't constantly interrupt and (c) so obviously has a genuine interest her life and career and shows respect for her. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much for watching, and for your very kind comments. I put my heart and soul into every interview, and feedback such as yours means the world to me. 🙏❤️
Happy 80th Birthday Stefanie Powers
May God bless her always
80 years old? Absolutely unbelievable. She looks at least 30 years younger.
Thank you for this very warm and informative interview with the fabulous (and age defying) Stefanie Powers. I admire her passion for wildlife preservation. It is not often you see 100% of donations going directly to a cause and not being devoured by administration costs. She really does have "Hart". Thank you Stephanie and thank you Harvey.
Thank you so much for watching, and for your lovely comment.
There’s a video, here on UA-cam, “An evening with Stefanie Powers,” posted in march, 2014, she said she has to do an acting job to be able to afford flying between the United States and Kenya, because all the money she gets for WHWF goes to the charity.
I thought perhaps she was making a joke, and i forget which airline I used (United? American? Delta?), but the airfare between Los Angeles and Kenya is between $3,000-$4,000!
I was STUNNED!
She turns 80 in just under a month!
Such an incredible lady! Should have asked her where the fountain of youth is; looks 30-40 yrs younger than her age! Her personality always just jumps off the screen; even in this interview! Thank you for posting this interview!
Thank you so much for watching!!!
You have no idea how ridiculously happy you have made so many people, including myself! Ms. Powers is my hero and role model and I love hearing her stories. Thank you so much for sharing this fabulous interview with us ❤
You have no idea how ridiculously happy you’ve made ME!!!! Thank you so much for watching our show!!!
@@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980 I love your interview style- you do your research and let your subject lead the conversation- that’s truly a lost art and you do a fabulous job❤
I thank you with all my heart. It’s feedback like yours that makes all the hard work so worth it!!!
What a great interview! They broke the mold with Stefanie! As RJ said, “Stefanie is one in a million”! What a great human, love her💕
She sure is an incredibly beautiful person inside and out. I absolutely adore her. Thank you so much for watching.
Fortunately, there have been a few interviews in the past three years, some of comparable length. Because you're right, Stefanie is always worth listening for an hour (and longer). She is an amazing raconteur, indeed, entertaining on the one hand (when she talks about filming of "Die! Die! My Darling!" in London, for example), and educational on the other hand (when she talks about desertification and avoiding desertification or respectively, making deserts productive or fruitful by using desalinated seawater). She is definitley someone who has something to say and who should be listened to. And thank you, Harvey Brownstone, for giving Stefanie Powers the space to share her memories and perspectives with us. Thank you for this great, entertaining interview.
Thank you so much for watching, and for your very kind comments. Greatly appreciated.
My goodness, this classy lady hasn't aged a bit. Another fabulous interview Mr. Brownstone. Enlightening and enormously entertaining as always!
Thank you so much!
I have loved Stefanie for over 50 years! She is everything you described her as. My absolute favorite is Hart to Hart. I still watch DVDs of the show regularly. I’m so glad to hear her say a remake would not be a good idea. What has always amazed me the most is that she is so smart and strives to inform people whenever she gives interviews. This has to be one of the best interviews I’ve seen her give. Thanks for not editing it!
Thank you so much for watching, and for your very kind comments. Stefanie was very happy with the interview. And that is very gratifying
You can't remake something as wonderful as Hart to Hart because it was the easy affection between the two stars that made it so special. They loved each other and it showed.
You can't just make that happen, it has to be natural.
They were fabulous and even better together. There won't be another Hart to Hart because the original was perfect. ❤🐶❤
I agree 100%
Great interview! You must watch the entire interview. Thank you
Thank you so much for saying that. I really hate it when people don’t watch to the very end!
God broke the mold with Ms. Powers. She's been my hero my life long too! Beautiful interview, thank you
Thank you so much for watching our show. That means the world to me. ❤️
She is absolutely the best , such a beautiful person inside and out. Love her in anything she does , but Hart to Hart is my favorite ❤️❤️. She is just one of those people you would love to sit down and have conversations with , you could learn so much from her. Just amazes me she is knowledgeable about so many things. She is definitely a treasure 🥰
You really nailed it with those comments. Stefanie is EVERYTHING you described, and more. Her authenticity, sincerity and passion for animals and the environment is so refreshing, and so very necessary in the world. She doesn’t give interviews often, and is extremely selective about whom she’ll allow to interview her. So you can imagine how honored and privileged and GRATEFUL I feel.
@@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980 yes you are truly blessed to have been able to interview her and also on top of that you interviewed RJ. How wonderful is that, two of the most amazing actors and beautiful people. You are also amazing at doing these interviews, you are wonderful. Thank you for doing them and sharing with us ❤️
Thank you so much for your very kind comments about me and our show. It’s feedback like yours that makes all the hard work so worth it! Your support of our show is greatly appreciated. ❤️
Another wonderful interview. Stephanie is so much more than an actress which I would not have known without this interview. I saw Stephanie in Applause at the PaperMill Playhouse in NJ around 1996. I think it was in previews to bring back to Broadway however I do not think it ever did. Thanks again ❤
Thank you so much for watching
Mr. Brownstone, your introductions are so outstanding, as are your interviewing skills. Thank you for your example!
Thank you so much for letting me know that you appreciate what I do. That means the world to me. ❤️
Thank you!
You are most welcome. Thank you for watching!
Watching this interview inspired me to re-watch some of Ms Powers' works including Deception and Mistral's Daughter. Such talent! And, acting is only one of her many abilities.
I’m so happy the interview motivated you to rediscover and enjoy some of her work! Thank you so much for watching
Oh my goodness! What an interview. Wow! Harvey Brownstone, you have done it again. Stephanie Powers is amazing!
Thank you so much Debra. She’s quite a force of nature. It was a unique experience, that’s for sure!
@@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980 I am listening to parts of it again. Wow!
OMG you’re a glutton for punishment!😱
❤❤❤❤ Miss Powers Is Breath Taking As Always..
She certainly is - in every way. Thank you so much for watching.
Fantastic interview Thank you
You are so very welcome. Thank you so much for watching!!
LOVE this intelligent and interesting Lady!
THANK YOU for this phenomenal interview!
I’m thrilled that you enjoyed this very special episode of our show
Thank you So Much! for sharing this video. I believe i was only 12 years old when Hart to Hart started but as i got older is when i recall started watch the show, Which I still till this day love both Stefanie and Robert Wagner. They are my most favorite tv married couple. I guess because I was so young at the time she made all those movies before Hart to Hart. I was like WOW! This woman is so AMAZING! And has done a lot even before hart to hart. Since i have been old enough to watch any movies she have done after hart to hart has been great. She looks like a wonderful caring person inside and out. I'v always wanted her and Robert Wagner to play mr and mrs claus. and more. I can just go on and on about her. One thing i found out is that Stefanie and I both are Scorpios. Again. It's always to see present interviews with her etc. 🙂
Thank you so much for watching, and for your comments.
A truly stunning interview Mr. Brownstone. Ms. Powers represents the best of people who care for all that our earth has given us. Thank you very much.
I’m immensely grateful to you for your support of our show!
Harvey, you just keep hitting it out of the park with these interviews!! As so many others I have been a fan of Stephanie Powers for decades. I became a fan of Stephanie's when she guessed it on the 6 Million Dollar Man and The Bionic Woman. I was and contiunue to be a ❤️ 2 ❤️ fan.
Although "The Girl from Uncle", was a wee bit before my time I have seen the show in reruns and loved it. I've seen and loved many her tv movie, but I must share that although it wasn't a main role I loved Stephanie in "Hollywood wives" I really felt that her character of "Montana Gray", gotta love that name, was a lot like how I imagined Stephanie was in real life, in regards to the personality and attitude of the character, no pretense. As I've told you in our personal correspondence, I am so grateful to you for interviewing all these wonderful people, who are rarely interviewed by a person who not only does their homework, but who asks many questions that are often never asked. Thank you, gracias, merci, dank!! 👍
Thank you so much for your beautiful and very kind comments. It’s feedback like yours that makes all the hard work so worth it!! I’m so delighted that our little show has very quickly acquired such a huge and loyal following!!! I greatly appreciate your support.
A lovely interview. Stefanie was a pleasure to watch in the tv mini series 'Deceptions' and also ''Hart to Hart'. Very nice to hear about William Holden, clearly she still misses him.
I had planned to ask her more about her relationship with William Holden, but she was much more interested in talking about the environment. I think that’s fairly obvious. So I went where she wanted to go. I’m glad you enjoyed the interview. I learned a lot from this experience.
@@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980 Really good interview!
Thank you so much
Talking about the environment and the horses going to slaughter is vital information that everyone needs to hear.
People have been so foolish with what they are doing to our beautiful home. It's heartbreaking.
She knows what she's talking about, she should be mandatory listening for everyone.
We need to listen and take action before it's too late.
Long live Stefanie Powers and the William Holden foundation.
I pray we get smart and quickly ! 🕊
God bless you for speaking truth!!!
Finalmente consegui traduzir! Você está de parabéns com essa entrevista, foi um estudioso, por isso muito sábio em suas perguntas e o mais legal foi ouvir atenciosamente toda a mensagem que Ms. Powers tem para transmitir ao mundo sobre seu trabalho magnífico. Ela sempre afirma que 100% do seus colaboradores contribuem vai para os trabalhos no Quênia e eu confio plenamente nela e no que ela faz e propõe. Emocionante ver a emoção dela quando você recitou o poema que ela escreveu ao Sr. Bill. Obrigada por essa entrevista maravilhosa. Um grande abraço do Brasil. 😘❤🌹
Thank you so much for watching our show. Sending you love, hugs and gratitude ❤️
I stumbled upon this interview, and what a treasure it is. The interviewer was just delightful and asked great questions. And then there is Ms. Powers!!! What a brilliant woman. I so enjoyed her in this interview. I never realized just how accomplished she is. I just love Hart to Hart-and yes as Ms. Powers said, everyone wants that relationship. Ms. Powers is still so beautiful. I wish her all the very best, she certainly has brought a lot of joy into people’s lives with her illustrious film career and her dedication to our wildlife.
Thank you for this wonderful and insightful interview.
Thank you so much for “stumbling” upon our show. I hope you will check out our other great interviews and consider subscribing to our UA-cam channel. 🙏❤️
Loved this interveiw.What an intelligent person.Refreshing to see someone that has a brain and THINKS.
She is definitely brilliant. Thanks so much for watching our show.
My generation knows her from Hart 2 Hart. She was so sultry and smart and not the stereotypical woman on TV. She was the best part of that show! I always smile when I think of her.
I hope you enjoyed this rare exclusive interview with her.
Love the interview! I think Bankhead's last movie was "A Royal Scandal," not "Lifeboat," but Powers' stories are great. Thanks Mr. Brownstone!
My pleasure. Thanks for watching!
My first time seeing Stefanie Powers was on The Girl From Uncle, which I loved! I think that was over fifty-five freaking years ago! She looks absolutely gorgeous 😁
She truly is a magnificent human being
What lovely kind hearted lady!
And so passionate about the world we live in.
I agree with Stephanie about how to take care of the planet. One thing wasn't mentioned and that is that the population of the planet is massive in some parts of the world. One reason why there is large scale commerical farming in order to provide food for everyone. Too many human beings on the planet puts the planet under huge pressure. I enjoyed your talk with Stephanie. Hart to Hart was a great show. 🙂🤓💌💛💫💫💫👍
Thank you so much for watching, and for your insightful comments
She is not only smart, simpatico and with a big heart for our planet - she is very funny. Her imitation of Tallulah was awesome. 😂
I’m so grateful you watched this rather intense interview. Stefanie’s commitment to our planet is so powerful.
Stefanie is a force. She is 100% correct regarding the environment. She mentioned the salinization plants in California. Israel manages to run the largest desalinization plant in the world and deliver water to consumers at a lower price than what the current rates are in the city of Los Angeles. There’s obviously too much money to be made by charging consumers here in LA as opposed to building efficient environmentally sensitive desalination plants.
Yay!! Israel leads the way again!! I love it! Am Yisrael Chai!!
Again Harvey and I will say it ad nauseum, you never disappoint with your interviews! I swear, had we been neighbours in 🇨🇦 we probably would have been great friends. Die Die My Darling is my favourite Stephanie Powers film as well. I tried to watch it every time it aired on the "Friday Night Fright Nights" that aired out of Buffalo during the mid to late 60's. I loved hearing Stephanie's take on the film. Another, incredible, inciteful and personally my favourite interview I've yet to hear from Stephanie. What an amazing actress and humanitarian! And how she stood behind Bill Holden ( another one of my powerhouse favourite actors) still brings a tear to my eye. Thank you yet again. No interview will ever be too long for me!❤
Thank you so much for your very kind feedback about our show, which is a real labour of love for me. Viewers like you, who really “get” what I do, make all of the hard work we do so worth it. Sending you my gratitude and best wishes.
@@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980t's so funny because every time I watch one of your shows I end up seeking out one of the films or shows that you have discussed. I've currently just rented " Die! Die! My Darling! from UA-cam. It's been a minute since I've last seen it. Probably a year ago. 😊
I’m glad the interview motivated you to see one of the films we discussed
@@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980 Absolutely. The best scissor scene since The Furies. I'm sure you will get the reference. 😉 And I think Tallulah's character is Margaret White's long lost sister.
You ask terrific questions!!!
Thank you so much! I sure try my very best!
And thank you for allowing the guest to talk and complete their thoughts.
Thank you so much for your support
You are a great & respectful interviewer, Stefanie is an incredible intelligent & sensitive woman. Thank you both for illuminating a bit more our journey.
I really appreciate your very kind comments. Thank you so much’🙏❤️
the tallulah reminiscence was wonderful !
I’m so grateful that you enjoyed it
Absolutely stunning beautiful lady…. I have loved her forever.
Me too!
What an accomplished lady.
Very much so!
Such an incredibly positive human being, Stephanie Powers. And the interviewer... where do you find one who actually let's his guess to speak? Great interview, thanks to both.
Thank you so much!!
Stephanie Powers voice I always loved.Classy interview with a Classy lady.
The interviewer, who always aspired to be classy, thanks you!❤️
Amazing,Thank you!
Thanks for watching. I hope you’ll subscribe to our UA-cam channel. 🙏❤️
The bird is beautiful and amazing how long they live and that you have had it for 50 years
I didn't mean that you were 80 I was talking about Miss Powers you don't look 67 either maybe in your 50s
@sandraleonard945 oh thank you so much!
Love you so much 💗🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Thank you so much! I love you too! I love all my loyal viewers. ❤️
U bivšoj Jugoslaviji prikazane su njene kraće serije i poneki film,sećam se da je predivna i prelepa glumica ,ispada lepo izgleda .
English translation please?
SP is an upbeat delight and still youthful. Years ago, at a meet n greet, she passed by me but I didn't stop to see her because I ran out of $$$$.
She’s quite a remarkable human being
SUPER SMART LADY
That’s for sure! I absolutely adore her. Thank you so much for watching.
Loved it. Maybe interview Barbara Eden next?
I’d love to. But she has consistently declined.
@@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980 Please don't give up on her. Ask again. Have a good day.
@xqsme4783 our show has now reached a level of success, notoriety and prestige that we no longer need to beg and plead major celebrities to appear on our show. Many big stars are clamoring to come on the show. So to be honest, at this point, when a star declines, we move on to the next one.
Stephanie speaks 7 languages😮😮😮
What intelligence! I love watching the Harts on You Tube
Glad she and Robert are still alive! How old was she here?
The interview was filmed in 2022. So go to her Wikipedia page, which will give you the year she was born. And you’ll be able to figure out how old she was when we filmed the interview.
How beautiful you look Stefanie🥰🥰🥰
She sure does!
I love her parrot brooch!
Me too but I wish the bird would have turned around
@@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980 I guess that you must have edited out any birdie "accidents!" oops.
❤
❤️
Love her I still watch hart to hart and McClintock I love her in that movie to and all the actors love you You sure don't look 80 happy birthday I'm not sure what day it is but hope you had a great time love Sally
I’m not 80. I’m 67 and I think I look it!
My first crush April Dancer!
Mine too!!
Stefanie Powers as April Dancer Super Sexy and Super Groovy . Staring in The Show The Girl From U.N.C.L.E. Acronym For United Network Command for Law and Enforcement . Stefanie's Character in The Show Was Originally Named Cookie Fortune . And The Original Title For The Show Was The Girl From A.U.N.T.I.E. Acronym For Associated Unified Nations Taskforce for International Enforcement .
What did you think of the interview?
@@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980
The Interview Was Super Groovy !!
Oh thank you so much!!! I put my heart and soul into every interview, and feedback like yours means the world to me!!
Wagner is right, she is not only beautiful, she is extrmely smart!
Oh yes definitely. She’s brilliant.
💖💖💕
❤️❤️❤️
Stefanie always reminds me of Doris Day!
Really? That’s surprising
Was she not the actress who was in love with actor Robert Wagner. ?
She was his costar in Hart to Hart
Please support Baby Bats and Buddies of Australia. They 🦇 desperately need some help. If you can, please give generously to these gorgeous creatures. They look like flying puppies.
The people there are mean and cruel to these divine beings. 🦇
Please look in your heart and send them something to ease the pain. 😢
Thank you and God bless you. 🦇
Thank you so much for bringing this important cause to our attention. And thank you for your support of our show.
I used to like her. Now she's a bit of a kook on rollerskates.
Oh I didn’t know she roller skates. I’ve never tried it. And if she’s kooky, well….she’s a very popular one.
I disagree.. I’d love a gay Hart to Hart remake ; I think it’s clever and good idea
No.
Great interview! Powers spins her tales well.
She’s a great conversationalist. Thanks for watching!
Harvey, unless i missed it, i hope you can speak with Barbara Eden.
Believe me we’ve tried. And tried. And tried. Maybe you can talk her into it?
Would love to. She was in a fantastic tv movie from the 70s where she was impregnated by an alien. It's wild. Absolutely absurd premise, but babs sells it. Terrific. George Grizzard plays her hubby.
Well please feel free to get her on our show. I love her!!
@@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980 I'm a nobody. I don't know anyone. She is great.
@theessentials450 well to me YOU are great. Thank you for your support of our show. ❤️
