Synopsis
Young people starting out in television sometimes say to me: "I want to be you." My stock reply is always: "Then you have to take the whole package." And now, at last, the most important woman in the history of television journalism gives us that "whole package," in her inspiring and riveting memoir. After more than forty years of interviewing heads of state, world leaders, movie stars, criminals, murderers, inspirational figures, and celebrities of all kinds, Barbara Walters has turned her gift for examination onto herself to reveal the forces that shaped her extraordinary life. Barbara Walters's perception of the world was formed at a very early age. Her father, Lou Walters, was the owner and creative mind behind the legendary Latin Quarter nightclub, and it was his risk-taking lifestyle that made Barbara aware of the ups and downs that can occur when someone is willing to take great risks. The financial responsibility for her family, the fear, the love all played a large part in the choices she made as she grew up: the friendships she developed, the relationships she had, the marriages she tried to make work. Ultimately, thanks to her drive, combined with a decent amount of luck, she began a career in television. And what a career it has been! Against great odds, Barbara has made it to the top of a male-dominated industry. She has spent a lifetime auditioning, and this book, in some ways, is her final audition, as she fully opens up both her private and public lives. In doing so, she has given us a story that is heartbreaking and honest, surprising and fun, sometimes startling, and always fascinating., From presidents to dictators to the world's hottest celebrities, Barbara Walters has interviewed hundreds of notable people. Now, the most important woman in the history of television journalism offers a memoir that is heartbreaking and inspiring, surprising and fun, sometimes startling, and always riveting. Abridged. 5 CDs.

- w***w (219)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaI ordered numerous items from this seller and everything was great. But the last order I received was shipped wrong. I was told by the seller that I should tape the box back up and "RETURN TO SENDER". I did this and this cost me 14.20 to return this wrong item. I feel if I would not have stayed on this for my correct merchandise to be sent I would have not received the correct item. I ask for a refund on my "RETURN TO SENDER" fee. I never received that back. Very good seller up until that pointGot2b High Hold Hair Spray Mega Can, 18 oz - 6 Pack (#266786356176)
