On December 30, 2022, pioneering journalist Barbara Walters passed away at the age of 93. Walters, who began her career in 1961 on the Today show , has dominated TV news for more than a half-century and interviewed hundreds of famous people during that time. She was renowned for her hard-hitting, tough-as-nails interview style. Here are six of her most memorable moments.

1. Katharine Hepburn

Walters was teased mercilessly for asking the famous actress what kind of tree she would be.

2. Monica Lewinsky

This 1999 interview was seen by 74 million viewers, making it the third highest-rated television interview ever. (Oprah Winfrey’s 1993 interview with Michael Jackson holds the top spot, followed by Oprah’s 2021 sit-down with The Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
