Five-Oh!: Rita And Shirley

Stars On Staying Young At 50 And AARP

(CBS)  The March issue of the AARP magazine profiles seven of Hollywood's most glamorous Oscar-winning actresses, and two of them, Rita Moreno and Shirley Jones, tell co-anchor Hannah Storm about what it is like to be over 50.

"A big part of AARP's mission is to redefine the way people think about age," says the magazine's deputy editor, Nancy Graham. "And this is what we wanted to do with this cover. I think we've accomplished it." To read more, click here.

Richard Gere kicked off The Early Show's monthly series with the AARP.

Co-anchor Harry Smith spoke with Gere on the day he received the AARP's prestigious IMPACT award, honoring his work with the international organization he created: Healing the Divide.
