Actress Betty White, star of such classic sitcoms as 'The Mary Tyler Moore Show' and The Golden Girls,' and winner of five primetime Emmy Awards, has died at the young age of 99. Correspondent Mo Rocca has a remembrance.
Correspondent Mo Rocca said,"There's a great bit where Sue Ann Nivens pulls out a collapsed soufflé from the oven , and then she closes the door with her knee."
White's career in television pre-dated television itself. Months before the medium was introduced to the public at the 1939 World's Fair, 17-year-old Betty appeared on an experimental transmission in Los Angeles."Oftentimes people would come up to her and say, 'Oh, I want to show you a picture of my kids,' and she'd say, 'Oh, great!'" Malick recalled.
As a couple they were, said Brooks,"Tremendously loving. Tremendously loving towards each other. They were precious to each other. … I think 'adored' is the word."– something Wendie Malick credits to her unfailingly positive outlook.
