Barbara Walters attended Sarah Lawrence College and she attended Miami Senior High School.
According to Walters, her father made and lost several fortunes in show business throughout his life. Walters was a booking agent, and unlike her uncles in the shoe and dress business, his job was not particularly secure.
Walters recalls her father taking her to the rehearsals of the nightclub shows he directed and produced during the good times. The actresses and dancers would lavish attention on her and twirl her around until she became dizzy. Then Walters said her father would take her out for their favorite food, hot dogs.
