Betty White was set to turn 100 in January, and a new book compiles that many highlights from the TV legend’s 10 decades of life.
“We think she’s the sitcom queen, but she’s had so many different lives,” he said. “Sitcoms, game shows, soap operas, drama, made-for-TV movies, live variety. She has done virtually every genre there is to do in television. So when people say that she’s, you know, the first lady of TV, it’s no idle boast.”Betty as Blanche? White and co-star Rue McClanahan nearly were cast in each other's roles.
“Betty actually started out doing radio ads, and didn’t think she had what it took for television,” Richmond noted. “But, you know, her ascension really paralleled the ascension of TV and the pioneering of TV itself, because the camera loved her. I mean, she just sparkled on camera and audiences ate it up. From doing one of the first situation comedies, 'Life with Elizabeth' , she also did something just completely remarkable in the early days of TV.
“To this day, she’ll tell you that the only real mistake she ever made in her life was making Allen Ludden wait a year before saying yes,” Richmond said.
