Candice Bergen Never Heard Her Commencement Address But Wouldn't Mind Hearing Oprah Speak

Candice Bergen
As I was asked, no, begged to leave college after my second year, I never heard my commencement address, but my daughter graduated from Brown and Dave Eggers spoke one day and Robert Redford another on graduation weekend. They were both excellent. I would love to hear Oprah and Hillary among others.

Of course Oprah would wax inspirational and poetic! … My choice would be First Lady Michelle Obama!

I never went to my commencement from nursing school in ‘70.  My parents wouldn’t come to NYC, so went to work, instead..  Two of my sons had mid term graduations and missed out because they went to work.. Embarassed that I don’t remember who spoke at the other 3 graduations!!!  Would love to hear you, Candice; and Michelle, Hillary, Madeline Albright, Justice Ginzberg, Sec’y Solis, among others… exciting times…
