In 2009, we had the pleasure of interviewing Debbie Reynolds about her life in Hollywood, her one woman show and her deep bond with her daughter Carrie Fisher.

In 2011, we also had the pleasure of chatting with Carrie Fisher at her own one woman show, Wishful Drinking. We were inspired by her courage and humor in talking so candidly about her life.

Tragically, Carrie Fisher was traveling home to California to visit her mother when she had a heart attack and later died. Days later Debbie Reynolds also passed away.

Please enjoy this encore presentation of our interview with Debbie Reynolds. Our hearts and thoughts go to Debbie, Carrie, their family and to their millions of fans and friends all around the world.
