Wishing a very happy 80th birthday to the forever young Florence Henderson – Greg in Hollywood fave!

It’s very hard to believe but the forever young Florence Henderson turns 80 today!

Of course I grew up watching this loveliest of ladies on The Brady Bunch then The Brady Bunch Variety Hour then The Brady Brides then A Very Brady Christmas and the last series, The Bradys.

But I’ve also seen her perform her one-woman show several times and it gives you the full snapshot of an amazing career that began on Broadway and includes other television gigs from being a regular on The Today Show to dazzling us on Dancing With the Stars a few years ago.

I’ve interviewed her several times over the years including back in the fall of 2011.

I moderated a panel at the West Hollywood Book Fair with Florence, Dyan Cannon, Stefanie Powers and Carrie White.

My absolute favorite moment came when I asked Florence to sing the Brady Bunch theme song and she did it!

I think everyone enjoyed immensely. But I didn’t think anyone got video of it.

But Renee Sotile and Mary Jo Godges of www.TraipsingThruFilms.com did! I didn’t know them then but they have become good friends of mine and I’ll be forever grateful that they captured part of it for us to enjoy again and again.
