WGBH Arts Editor Jared Bowen interviewed Stritch in October 2004, when she was in Boston performing her one-woman show, Elaine Stritch: At Liberty, at the Wilbur Theatre. "Secrets are dangerous; I'll tell you anything you want to know about me," she told Bowen. See what she revealed about her alcoholism (including drinking with Judy Garland), the late greats and her 60 years in the theater.
