"Sunday Morning" takes us to Dauphin Island off the Gulf coast of Alabama. Videographer: Scot Miller.
Sixty-two years of wedded bliss almost didn’t happen for Mort and Susan Block, of Kennett Square, Pa., except that Mort, a Navy sailor, composed a song for his love. More than six decades later, Mort's sheet music was spotted by his grandson, Matt Block, who gathered some of the best studio musicians in the country to take that dusty old love song and make it sing. Correspondent Steve Hartman reports on how a love song originally intended for an audience of one has now been played on social media more than a million times.
The New York Times columnist examines the myriad takes about Will Smith's physical and verbal confrontation against comedian Chris Rock during the Academy Awards broadcast.
The same day the "Late Show with Stephen Colbert" bandleader received 11 Grammy nominations – the most by any artist this year – the love of his life was beginning chemotherapy treatments for her second battle with cancer. Jon Batiste and bestselling author Suleika Jaouad ("Between Two Kingdoms") talk with correspondent Jim Axelrod about how their world was turned upside-down, and how they met adversity with an act of defiance.
Hailed as one of the greatest child prodigies since Mozart, pianist Ruth Slenczynska played her first concert when she was four. Nearly a century later, Ruth is still making music, putting out a brand-new album at 97 years old, aptly titled "My Life in Music." She talks with correspondent Mo Rocca about the notes of her life, both high and low – from a difficult childhood, to her relationship with Rachmaninoff, playing a duet with an American president, and the experience age has gifted her.
The actress and singer who came to fame singing "Bye Bye Birdie" isn't ready to say farewell just yet. Ann-Margret, the star of such hits as "Viva Las Vegas," "Carnal Knowledge" and "Tommy" (the latter two of which earned her Oscar nominations), talks with correspondent Tracy Smith about her transcendent six-decade career, from her childhood in Sweden where she dreamed of being an entertainer, to her status as a sex symbol, to becoming a Hollywood grand dame.
Since before we were a nation, African Americans have had an extraordinarily important, yet little understood, impact on the development of American cuisine. Correspondent Maurice DuBois talks with Houston chef Chris Williams, historian Jessica B. Harris, and food expert Charla Draper about Black culinary influencers; and visits a New York City museum exhibit on food history, "African/American: Making the Nation's Table."
Wherever young Joe Biden went, his little sister Valerie was sure to follow. She would eventually run her brother's campaigns for the U.S. Senate and his first two bids for the presidency. Valerie Biden Owens talks with CBS News' Norah O'Donnell about "Growing Up Biden," a memoir of her family's story of tragedy, sorrow, resilience and purpose, and why she believes President Biden is the right person at the right time for the job.
Five weeks into Russia's stalled war in Ukraine, what is clear is that it will end in a negotiated settlement – but to whose advantage? CBS News national security correspondent David Martin talks with retired Gen. David Petraeus about what Vladimir Putin might hope to achieve after failing to capture Kyiv, and what peril Ukraine's military faces as the Kremlin concentrates its firepower on the eastern part of the country.
"Sunday Morning" takes us among the elk and turkeys at the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in North Carolina. Videographer: Scot Miller.
