BARBARA WALTERS | 88

American journalist and broadcaster Barbara Walters, born on September 25, 1926, has now mainly become an inspiration for women out there who want to walk the same career path she did. In the mid-‘70s, she was the co-anchor of the evening news, which was very rare to happen in those days. However, what really made her even more popular were appearing on the talk shows, like Today, 20/20, ABC Evening News, and The View.

She then made history, recorded as the highest-paid journalist back then with a $1 million salary per year. Today, Walters is 91 years old and out of the spotlight. She officially retired from the business but surely watching every woman take the center stage, following the same success she has. Walters probably has the best insurance that one can own so that she can perfectly look after her health. She is an inspiration to many and for sure, these people want the best for her.
