Remembering Robin Williams
Joan Lunden with Robin Williams on Good Morning America - 1991
I couldn't believe it when I heard the news last night that Robin Williams had died. I can honestly say that he was the most spontaneous, electrically charged person I ever interviewed. Every time I sat down to interview him it was like getting on a roller coaster ride and you just had to fasten your seatbelt. I never knew what was going to happen and that's what made working with him so incredible. Robin was a refreshing burst of energy and light to our show and for our viewers. He will be missed by so many, what a sad sad day.
