Barbara Walters could talk to anyone, and between 1976 and 2015, she did. From world leaders including 10 sitting American presidents to celebrities like Lucille Ball, Barbra Streisand and John Wayne, to newsmakers like Monica Lewinsky, whose interview drew arecord 74 million viewers, Barbara questioned and frequently made cry anyone who was anyone. She was charming, witty,” recalls Monica today.
Even as Barbara blazed a trail for future generations, she faced the same hurdles of finding a healthy balance between her professional and private life that every busy person does. The four-times divorced newswoman, who died on Dec. 30 at age 93, admitted that her career came before any man, but she did put her whole heart into her relationship with her daughter, Jacqueline Danforth, 54, whom she adopted in 1968. Barbara adored her, and they were close,” says a friend. Of course they had their differences but Jackie was there for her in the end.”
