mrs. wallace was an older woman. anyway, whatever. [laughter] so i kept studying. i just knew there was somebody famous i could share this room with. it had been caroline's room. lucy moved in to what was john's room. i had thought i was going to get this room with wonderful antique furniture. my mother moved our old furniture in. [laughter] that is the negative. the positive is now i have a piece of furniture that was and the white house. [laughter] i just wish it was a better quality. [laughter] not worth refinishing the desk. anyway, subsequently, i found out that after little willie died, they locked up his room to forever go into the room. what room was that? the curator said that was your room, ms. lynda. they said after abraham lincoln was assassinated, they brought his body back to the white house -- [laughter] -- and they took his body down and they described exactly where and they did an autopsy. [laughter] yes, it was my room. [laughter] i am always trying to raise money for literacy. a few years ago, a friend of mine was doing a book on the white house.

it's interesting that gregory wallace, an african american man, was supposed to play mr. oge, an excentric neisei who likes literature. i thought it would be an interesting thing to do. but after a while we did a reading and we realized as good an actor as gregory is, it was pushing his limits for him to play a japanese american character in the late 40's. >> i imagine him as being much older. >> in the course of writing the play and using various actors, he became younger. this chinese actor is more like a character in his mid to late 30's, excentric, a career bachelor who is into russian literature and who fashions himself kind of patterned after the japanese artists of the 30's and 40's. he has round sort of glasses and a braid. but getting back to the question of creating characters, for example african american characters, i'm also caution -- i had written another play called johann that was about an african american gi and a japanese wife that got married in post war japan. i wrote that play 20 years ago. i wouldn't do it for about 8 years or so because i just didn'

mr. president. >> from space to time, mike wallace spent 60 years mostly on "60 minutes" and most often afflictingh his confrontational style of journalism. wallace died in april. another television star, dick clark, was the maker of teen idols on "american bandstand" and rang in the new year for america for nearly four decades. as familiar as the whistle that opens his tv show, andy griffith planned to be a preacher or opera singer but settled on acting which he did up until his death in july. when larry hagman was shot as j.r. ewing on "dallas," it was the most watched point in his career that gan -- began on "i dream of jeannie." and joe paterno was sullied by the child sex abuse scandal at penn state that broke just before his death in january. etta james died in january 50 years after her version of "at last" became a must at millions of weddings. whitney houston died in february. ♪ i will always love you ♪ >> donna summer, in may. and some unique sounds fell silent, too, those are marvin hamlisch, dave brubeck, whose "take five" remains recognizable to grandchildren and grandparents, and doc

mr. president. truman says i wish you didn't have to come me that. host go. >> host: back to henry wallaceis perhaps the unsung hero of your book and i know as oliver was saying thinking about working on a screenplay a while back about while this. this is one of the great counterfactual's of modern american history. what if wallace had gotten nominated in 1944? in your book, he came closer than senator claude pepper from florida was about to nominate him and you argue that the convention would have gone along with that and he was much more popular certainly than the other people there. however, i do want to press you a little on that because and i think probably the best biography of wallace by culver and hi called the former senator from iowa, they make it really clear based on their evidence that fdr did not want wallace to run and he did say nice things to wallace who was in office in july of 1944 but that very evening he meets with people who are very dead set against wallace, the machine so to speak who did not like wallace wallison people from missouri and others. and according to cu

mr. president, and truman said, i wish you didn't have to call me that. >> a good segway back -- forward to henry wallace. perhaps unsung hero. think about working on a screen play a while back about a wallace. this is one of the great counterfactual, what if wallace had got renominated in 1944. in the book i know he came close it to. and culpepper from florida was about to nominate him and you argue that the convention would have gone -- he was much more popular than the other people there. however, i do want to press you a little on that because in -- i think probably the best buying agraph, the american dreamer, by a former senator from iowa, they make it pretty clear based on their evidence that fdr did not want wallace to run. he did say nice things to wallace in the office in the meeting they had in july, 18944, but that evening, he meets with people who were very dead set against wallace, the machine, who didn't want wallace, people from missouri and others. and according to high, wallace's name doesn't come up. they only talk about truman or william o. douglas as possibles. so, if wallace had got

mr. president and he said i wish you didn't have to call me that. some of the unsung hero of your book and i know looking at the screen play awhile back about wallace, you know, this is one of the great contractor was of course of the modern american history. but if he had gotten nominated in 1944. and we are doing the but i know that it's from florida and was about to nominate him and you argue that the convention would have gone along with that. he was much more popular than certainly the other people there. i do want to pressure a little on that because on the best biography of wallace and the former senator from iowa and they make it pretty clear based on the evidence that the fbi didn't wallace to run that. he did say nice things while he was an office but then that very evening he meets with people that are very dead set against him, people from misery and otherwise and the only talk of the truman or douglas. >> we've been through every piece of that information. >> that is a valid perspective. there was no chance he was going to survive, and they were going to try to get wallace off the ticket. it was run by two people, the national chair tha
