Barbara Walters, 91, Born In 1929 – Today

She was born in 1929, in Massachusetts, which means that Barbara Walters is 91 years old by now. Through all these years, she’s influenced thousands of people with her journalism work. After all, she’d been at it since the early ‘50s! Even though Walters is enjoying her retirement now, it doesn’t mean that she’s forgotten.

It’s safe to say that TV journalism would be looking a lot different today had it not been for Walters, the first woman co-anchor of a network evening news show. She’s participated in programs like ABC Evening News, The View, 20/20, and most importantly, Today. She’s also earned herself a $170-million fortune while doing so.
