AUDIO ONLY: 




Vicki Abelson: Lydia! Oh Lydia! Too Close For Comfort’s Lydia Cornell, gorgeous, inside and out, took us through her life, from Texas to Scarsdale to Colorado to Hollywood. A little girl with passion and vision who found a way to live her dream. We talked drugs and booze to sobriety, and recovery; obsession with appearance to striving to focus on what’s truly important. From business to music, to television, trying to please, sexual abuse of power, verbal abuse to be beautiful, the power of other’s opinions, creating our own path, writing our own projects; women directors, Lydia herself an award-winning one, Greta Gerwig, Mark Harmon, Elton John, Henry Dilz, Caribou Ranch, Jane Fonda, Gregory Harrison, Peter Tolan, Norman Lear, Ted Knight, Phil Rosenthal… mutual friend, Hubert O'Hearn, who introduced us… the conversation bubbled and flowed as the champagne once did.

"A CRAZY FUN INTERVIEW!"  Ah, to sit down with the lovely Lydia. Lydia Cornelland I, although Facebook friends for ages (thank you, Hubert), first came face to not Facebook on election night '16. To say we're forever bound by our mutual shocked horror... well...

AFI Best Actress nominee and People’s Choice Award winner Lydia is best known for her starring role on Too Close for Comfort. Other credits include Curb Your Enthusiasm, Power of Comedy, The Kelsey Grammer Comedy Hour, and The Red Tide with James Earl Jones. Starring in over 250 TV shows and films in 27 countries, with 20-34 million viewers each Tuesday night after Three’s Company on ABC prime time, Lydia's also a standup comedienne, author, and activist.

Deeply spiritual, beautiful inside and out, we'll be mining her tools for internals and externals.

We talked about her crash and burn.. drugs and booze to sobriety, and recovery; obsession with appearance to striving to focus on what’s truly important. From business to music, to television, trying to please, sexual abuse of power, verbal abuse to be beautiful, the power of other’s opinions, creating our own path, writing our own projects; women directors, Lydia herself an award-winning one, Greta Gerwig, Mark Harmon, Elton John, Henry Dilz, Caribou Ranch, Jane Fonda, Gregory Harrison, Peter Tolan, Norman Lear, Ted Knight, Phil Rosenthal… mutual friend, Hubert O'Hearn, who introduced us… the conversation bubbled and flowed as the champagne once did.
