    There was a commercial being done in Central Park with Stephen years ago, just as his star was rising. They needed a portrait artist to draw him. I was chosen.
    I can tell you he was polite, warm, and charming. He's a classic case of "what you see is what you get". I have no doubt Barbra enjoyed her time with him.

    I don't understand why the audience is laughing so much. Barbra Streisand did NOT write this book to be a joke, although she does address things using wit. She wrote it out of her earnest feeling that she needed to correct many things that have been incorrectly assumed about her as well as deliberately distorted . She also shares in this book many of her thoughts and feelings about her life, her delight in life and in wide ranging subjects, her creative process in just about any direction you would care to learn about it, she poured herself heart mind and soul into this book and it is quite rich in detail, and in praise for so many people she worked with. Where there is criticism it is muted and one has to admire her beautiful tenacity in life, in her art. Stephen is of course a comic and also a sincere person. I just want to reiterate Barbra Streisand is not a joke. She was and will always be a most serious artist and one who should be respected. This whole book and the audio as well are rich in commentary, and a living tapestry. It is unequalled in terms of memoir I think altogether. It is a beautiful gift and done with the generosity of spirit Barbra Streisand has always shown from the very beginning of her multifaceted career until now. She deserves more respect than this. And it is extraordinary that she shared so much of herself with readers. And not in a superficial manner.
