BARBARA WALTERS

Barbara Walters is no doubt one of the most influential TV personalities of all time. She is known for many years as an accomplished journalist and broadcaster, having hosted distinguished news programs like Today, ABC Evening News, 20/20, and The View. In 2004 and after her retirement, she continued to be a reporter and contributor until 2015. She also became a successful author and publisher of several articles to her credit, as well as writing her autobiography.

In 2010, news broke out about her successful treatment for a faulty aortic valve; but now at 90 years old, there has been less talk about her health. Before becoming a veteran journalist in America, she started her job in journalism by writing press releases on WNBT-TV and as a producer of a children-oriented TV show entitled Ask The Camera and the Eloise McElhone Show. After that, she began working on CBS’ The Morning Show and the rest was history.
