 | While appearing on the Oprah Winfrey Show (scheduled to air May 6th), Barbara Walters reveals that she had an affair in the 1970’s with Edward Brooke, a married Senator from Massachusetts. Walters was on the show to discuss her memoir “Audition”. This is a show we can not miss for sure! Barbara Walters has been best known for her interviewing of famous people. She has always been able to bring out the emotions in them as well, so I am curious how choked up she will get now that she is on the other end. |
| Winfrey asks Walters if she was in love. "I was certainly — I don't know — I was certainly infatuated." "Infatuated." "I was certainly involved," Walters says. "He was exciting. He was brilliant. It was exciting times in Washington." Article Source: AP | |

Barbara Walter's life was influenced greatly by her older sister and she's written a beautiful memoir about her life. I read another memoir of a life influence by a sibling that I recommend highly - I actually liked it even more. The memoir is ""My Stroke of Insight"" by Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor. Dr Taylor became a Harvard brain scientist to find the cause and cure for schizophrenia because her older brother was a sufferer. Then, crazy as life can be, Dr. Taylor had a stroke at age 37. What was amazing was that her left brain was shut down by the stroke - where language and thinking occur - but her right brain was fully functioning. She experienced bliss and nirvana and the way she writes about it (or talks about it in her now famous TED talk) is incredible.
What I took away from Dr. Taylor's book above all, and why I recommend it so highly, is that you don't have to have a stroke or take drugs to find the deep inner peace that she talks about. Her book explains how. ""I want what she's having"", and thanks to this wonderful book, I can!
