We leave you this last Sunday of spring at Palouse Falls in Washington State. Videographer: Hank Heusinkveld.
Applause – clapping your hands to signify approval – is an ancient, nearly universal custom, almost as old as humankind. "Sunday Morning" host Jane Pauley looks at the history of a theatrical tradition.
He's a Harvard grad, Rhodes scholar, Navy veteran, Mayor of South Bend, Ind., presidential candidate, and Secretary of Transportation, but Pete Buttigieg has another title: Papa. He and husband Chasten Buttigieg share with correspondent Jonathan Vigliotti their journey to parenting twins Penelope and Gus.
Actor-director Kevin Costner won two Academy Awards for "Dances with Wolves," and now he's back with another western: "Horizon: An American Saga," a four-part epic about pioneers settling the West, which Costner himself helped bankroll. He talks with correspondent Tracy Smith about his decades-in-the-planning story (the first two chapters debut in theaters this summer), and about his future on the modern-day western series "Yellowstone."
There are millions today who owe their lives to the work of the man who devoted his career to public health. But in recent years Dr. Anthony Fauci, who combatted infectious diseases at the National Institutes of Health, has been targeted by a partisan, anti-science spectrum of opponents. CBS News chief medical correspondent Dr. Jonathan LaPook talks with Dr. Fauci, author of the memoir "On Call: A Doctor's Journey in Public Service," about his role in countering indifference over the AIDS pandemic, and fighting misinformation about COVID-19.
Heartthrob Jonathan Bailey seems to have mastered the art of on-screen romance, from the Regency bodice-ripper "Bridgerton," to the fictional love affair between closeted Capitol Hill staffers at the height of McCarthyism in "Fellow Travelers." Correspondent Michelle Miller talks with the openly gay actor about his roles on stage and screen (including the upcoming screen version of "Wicked"), and his desire to be "completely authentic."
In less than a decade, Luke Combs has topped Billboard's country airplay chart 17 times, and was named Entertainer of the Year twice by the Country Music Association. He talks with "Sunday Morning" contributor Kelefa Sanneh about his latest album, "Fathers & Sons," which was inspired by his two young sons, and was also an opportunity to pay tribute to his father, Chester Combs.
"Sunday Morning" looks back at historical events on this date.
A DNA test that Matt Katz took to answer questions about his ancestry only stirred more mysteries. The investigative journalist dug into a past replete with family secrets and early fertility treatments, and turned his journey into a podcast, "Inconceivable Truth." He talked with correspondent Lee Cowan about finding new family while searching for his own origins.
Preview: In an interview airing June 16 on "CBS Sunday Morning," the former head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases tells CBS News chief medical correspondent Dr. Jonathan LaPook he turned down millions to leave his government job because he cared more about the health of the country.
