Wishing a very happy 82nd birthday to that absolutely lovely lady Florence Henderson!
The forever young Florence Henderson turns 82 today and she remains an inspiration to us all.
She’s a real star and a hard-working pro who always delivers.
Of course I grew up watching her on The Brady Bunch then The Brady Bunch Variety Hour then The Brady Brides then A Very Brady Christmas and the last series, The Bradys.
But I’ve also seen her perform her one-woman show several times and it gives you the full snapshot of an amazing career that began on Broadway and includes other television gigs from being a regular on The Today Show to dazzling us on Dancing With the Stars a few years ago.
Below is one of my all-time favorite moments. It was the fall of 2011 and I was moderating a panel at the West Hollywood Book Fair that included Miss Henderson, Dyan Cannon and Stefanie Powers.
At the end, I asked Florence to sing the Brady Bunch theme song for us – and she did! With the whole crowd joining in. Anyone there that day will never forget it.
Happy birthday to a truly lovely lady.
