Anne Morrow Lindbergh Was "Mom"
Charles Lindbergh didn't talk to his children with Anne Morrow Lindbergh about his famous flight. They learned about that in school.
And he certainly didn't talk to them about the seven children he fathered as part of three other families in Europe. They learned about that in news reports only a few years ago.
To be sure there were secrets in the Lindbergh family and feelings much too personal to be disclosed to the outside world, but now, daughter Reeve Lindbergh is sharing some thoughts about her parents, especially her mother, in a new memoir -- "Forward from Here."
CBS News Correspondent Nick Young spoke with Reeve Lindbergh about her famous family and the mother she reveres.
The little writing shack where Anne Morrow Lindbergh wrote many of her poems and essays has been moved to Reeve Lindberg's property in northern Vermont. But the enduringly popular "Gift from the Sea" was written on an island off the coast of Florida...and that's where Reeve Lindbergh went to find the answers when she needed them most.
Reeve Lindbergh says her mother, who died in 2001 at the age of 94, is still the "beacon" lighting her way through the world.
