- I grew up in the 60's watching all Doris Day's movies and her weekly tv show. I always wanted to be like her. She is one celebrity I would LOVE to sit down with and talk to. I, also am such a dog lover and cannot stand to see any animals mistreated. Thank you Doris for all the many many hours of entertainment you gave us through the years. I wish you peace and happiness. God bless you always.

- My hope is that Doris Day will spend some time reading the comments from those who adore her~ I grew up on Doris Day movies, and to this day, our greatest memories are watching the old movies together...my mother, my two daughters ages 21 & 25 and myself. Doris, your character reached generations of families and you brought so much pleasure into our homes. :)
We too are animal lovers and as I type this, I am listening to hundreds of wild birds who gather in our trees after feeding on the seed we have left for them for over 20 years. We share our home (but at times feel like our pets are sharing 'their' home with us) with two dogs, five cats-all strays-, fish and 18 nests of barn swallows! Our family admires your dedication to animals-who never cease to bring smiles to our faces.
I'm sure you have your plans in place for you animal rescue and pet foundation, but if you are ever looking for an animal loving family train and trust with your operation of love, please consider us.
We wish you happiness and peace,

- I have always loved Doris Day. I wish her well and good health. I have always wanted a wife like her. Doris-Clara is a classy woman.

- I have been a sunday morning fan for a very very long time. I am so very happy you did the story with doris day. I remember watching doris day and she made me smile. When she smiled, I smiled. As a black child of the sixties,it is what I remember the most. She was so very endearing and funny and nice. Her movies with and tv show put joy in my heart and her singing told me what singing in perfect pitch was about. her voice was so soothing and calm, she reminded me of a teacher. That Que Sera song (also done by Sly and the family stone back then) was my favorite song. Doris Day has always made me feel good. She was the whole package and the tv show was like icing on the cake. We could see her every week and that gigantic dog I wanted to play with so much. thanks for the memory. Sunday morning you always made me smile too.

- Doris Day''s great career speaks for itself. She now has been voted the best actress of all time, so I think that speaks volumes about her talent.
I do agree with jmeyer1954, because this book by Mr. Kaufman is a disgrace to the lady''s legacy. There have been several "unauthorized" books regarding Ms. Day, all of which she has stated she wants no part of because they are demeaning uninformed versions of her life.
Mr. Kaufman has no clue of the identity of the lady he writes about. He attempts to psychoanalyze why she left Hollywood and why she likes to be called, "Clara." Ms. Day, unlike what the pundits write, is not in hiding, not disassociating herself from Doris Day (the star), and is not a recluse. She is however, very private and works hard every day for her animal foundation and taking care of her own four leggers. Do not be fooled by what you read or hear. Just know she is enjoying her life doing what she loves doing. - Reply to this comment
- Shame on you Charles for letting this "unauthorized" papparazzi segment regarding Doris Day slip through your editing. Not your style. She has spent your life quietly and unassuming since leaving Hollywood. Why don''t you focus on the greater good that she has done towards animal rights instead? Wouldn''t that be your time better spent?

- Doris was out of that old Hollywood guard of a chaste public face and behind the scenes all the private vice you could want. It''s a different world today, celebrities have no private life. It''s no wonder she withdrew from Hollywood, she saw the handwriting on the wall and knew what was coming.
I think the important question is, do we get a better product from Hollywood today than we did a half century ago when most things were hidden? Certainly, we get a much more realistic product. But it does seem to me that the actors have, with few exceptions, become nothing more than generic names and faces, and the stories today have exchanged cornball formula for crappy formula. - Reply to this comment

Because she was washed up. - Reply to this comment
- Mt favorite film of Doris Day is "Love Me or Leave Me" 1955, with the great James Cagney. I think it is her best work as a dramatic actress and a singer. I think she deserves a Kennedy Center Honor.
