I’ve been blessed with a career that has given me the opportunity to interview people from all walks of life. I’ve been able to talk with politicians, athletes, doctors, criminals, victims, celebrities, even Oprah.

In 1998, WFSB flew me to Chicago to interview the queen of talk about her new film, “Beloved.” I conducted the interview in the Harpo Studios, and you’ll see it this Sunday in our Face the State Flashback. At the time, I had met Oprah before, thanks to my then co-anchor Gayle King, but I was still a little nervous asking her questions. Oprah quickly put me at ease, and the interview became more of a chat.
