Kathryn interviews Award-winning Actress Marilee Talkington, star of “See.” Legally blind herself, Marilee will be playing more than just a role in a show, but a pivotal role in the fight for authentic casting and representation. Born with cone-rod dystrophy, Talkington had no central vision, and learned how to not just survive, but thrive. She’s starred in NBC's New Amsterdam, CBS' NCIS, and countless theater productions. Kathryn also interviews Michael Korda, NY Times Best-Selling author of “Passing: A Memoir of Love and Death.” When troubling symptoms accumulated, Margaret confided to her husband, “Michael, I think something serious is wrong with me.” Within a few weeks, the former fashion model was diagnosed with brain cancer, while Korda became her caregiver, deciphering bewildering medical reports and packing her beloved toiletries for the hospital. He’s the former editor in chief of Simon & Schuster and a living legend in the publishing world.
