Doris Day and nostalgic music of the 60’s

July 13th, 2008 · 2 Comments · Music and the Golden Years

This morning on CBS Sunday Morning there was a special feature on Doris Day. It brought back sooooo many memories of going to the movies on Saturday afternoons in the 50’s and 60’s and watching movies like this and singing these songs in my head for weeks afterwards. Everybody loved Doris Day and I was one of her biggest fans! The show this morning went on to say that Doris had a kind of “lullaby” quality to her voice that gave her such a universal appeal. What do you think??

    Hi Dr. Cash,

    I share your love of Doris Day and was happy to see the 12 minute piece on CBS Morning Show yesterday. Her music really is timeless.

    I had been a fan since age 10 here in Indianapolis and eventually made my way to California where I met Doris and eventually she asked me to be her personal secretary. I worked for her while she was filming “The Doris Day Show” at CBS and after the show finished I lived with her for almost two years.

    David Kaufman interviewed me for his book two years ago and after that I was encouraged to publish my memoir of my time with Doris.

    My book:

    “DAY AT A TIME — An Indiana Girl’s Sentimental Journey to Doris Day’s Hollywood and Beyond” from Hawthorne Publishing
    (www.hawthornepub.com)
    came out late last fall. I share this up-close and personal look of my friend, Doris Day.

    I am doing author talks at libraries and for groups and enjoy meeting with people to share my stories and thought s on this incredible lady. I saw the real Doris Day – a fun-loving woman who was like a mentor to me.

    Doris has been an inspiration to me for many years and it is encouraging to see that many young people are now discovering Doris Day!

    Thank you for your interest in Doris Day.
