A Conversation with Julie Andrews and Emma Walton Hamilton

How do I even begin to introduce this video? (You'll notice I'm not in it, which is due to the technical and logistical difficulties of filming in a five-star hotel suite. The added benefit is that the focus is on the wonderful authors.)

I got to meet and interview Dame Julie Andrews with her daughter and co-author Emma Walton Hamilton for their new book, "Julie Andrews' Collection of Poems, Songs, and Lullabies."

!!!!!

Even months after conducting this interview, I can scarcely believe it. I met Julie Andrews. Somebody, pinch me...

However, if you watch the interview, I hope you'll notice not just Dame Andrews and Ms. Hamilton as fascinating and impassioned advocates for reading, but that you'll also see the warm and loving mother-daughter relationship that they share.

Wonderful interview

I thoroughly enjoyed this interview. I had no idea what Julie Andrews was doing currently and was glad my friend sent me this link. She is a very talented lady and I always loved to hear her sing. I have always loved poetry, both reading and writing it, so this was a subject close to my heart. Thank you for sharing it.

THANK YOU!

 THANK YOU SO MUCH! 

Great interview! Julie's lovely voice has been a gift of joy, sweetness and truly a blessing, not only as a singer but as a loving mother, grandma, wife, friend, colleague, and wonderful human being. The relationship mother -daughter is a precious thing to watch. Talent, passion, devotion, charm, humbleness and the joy of giving. God bless them!
