She recalled her longtime dreams of making it in the industry, saying, “I wanted to be in the movies, even though I knew I didn’t look like any of the other women on the screen. My mother said, ‘You better learn to type,’ but I didn’t listen. And somehow, someway — thank you, God — it all came true,” via People.
After celebrating her membership in SAG-AFTRA for 60 years, Barbra paid tribute to her peers in her conclusion: “And most of all, I want to thank you for giving me so much joy just watching all of you on the screen. Thank you for that.”
