BARBARA STREISAND AND ME

My strong link with Barbara Streisand is that our eyes are the same color blue and that her uncle, Sydney Streisand, used to fix our rabbit-eared TV in my childhood home in Far Rockaway, Queens, New York. I just finished a wonderful bio of her, Streisand, A Biography (Little Brown and Company, 1997) by Anne Edwards. For all you lovers of The Secret, you'll be thrilled to read how Streisand, as a little girl in Brooklyn, knew just what she wanted out of life and demanded it and GOT IT!
