Description: Harvey Brownstone conducts an in-depth Interview with Karen Carpenter Biography Filmmaker, Randy Schmidt About Harvey's guests: Today’s guest, Randy Schmidt, is a brilliant author, screenwriter and producer who’s here to discuss his brand new, multi-award winning documentary feature film about one of the greatest female vocalists in the history of pop music: Karen Carpenter, who with her brother Richard, formed a duo, “The Carpenters”, and became the #1 American music act of the 70s. The movie is called “Karen Carpenter: Starving for Perfection”, and it chronicles not only her spectacular career, but also, what was going on behind closed doors: her quest for perfection, resulting in low self-esteem, a disappointing love life, and a battle with anorexia, which resulted in her tragic death in 1983 at the young age of 32. We hear about Karen’s personal struggles in her own voice through never-before-released recordings—and through the voices of legendary stars who knew her and were inspired by her music, including Carol Burnett, Olivia Newton-John, Suzanne Sommers, Kristin Chenoweth, Carnie Wilson and others. The movie, which is now available on the EVENTIVE.ORG streaming platform, is a captivating, revealing, and unvarnished documentary providing astounding new insight into Karen Carpenter’s tragically short life and enduring musical legacy. Our guest, who wrote and produced this movie, is a best selling author who’s written 3 books about the Carpenters: “Little Girl Blue: The Life of Karen Carpenter”, “Yesterday Once More: The Carpenters Reader”, and “Carpenters: An Illustrated Discography”. He’s also published 2 books about Judy Garland, entitled “Judy Garland on Judy Garland: Interviews and Encounters”, and “Becoming Judy Garland”. And in 2018 he released a great book entitled, “Dolly on Dolly: Interviews and Encounters with Dolly Parton.” For more interviews and podcasts go to: https://www.harveybrownstoneinterviews.com/ To see more about Randy Schmidt and the film, go to: https://karencarpenterdoc.com/https://www.facebook.com/KarenCarpenterDochttps://www.instagram.com/karencarpenterdoc/https://twitter.com/amspictures #RandySchmidt #karencarpenterdoc #harveybrownstoneinterviewsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
