Early TV talk radio, first color broadcast by CBS
The
Mike and Buff
show, with Mike Wallace and then wife
Buff Cobb
Buff Cobb was in Chicago when I got out of the Navy in '46. I think she was playing with Tallulah Bankhead in Private Lives at the time. She was an actress and a bit of a glamorous figure to me at that time. So I succumbed and taught her how to do interviewing, and we did a husband-and-wife broadcast for a while on NBC [radio] in Chicago. The interview show stopped first, and the marriage shortly thereafter. Maybe it was vice versa.
Hops a ride with Luciano Pavarotti in 1993.
One of the last
60 Minutes
interviews that I remember was a 2005 interview with Hilary Swank, soon after her second Oscar for
Million Dollar Baby
. It was like father & daughter walking around Manhattan.
