With all the wonderful things Miss Arthur has done in her life, wouldn't it be great to see her final interview, in HER OWN WORDS talking about her career etc.
I found this clip of Bea Arthur's final interview. The clip also show Betty White, Carol Channing and Phyllis Diller.
I'd hate for an full interview with Bea or the other legendary ladies in the clip to go unseen.
Cheers,
Stephen
