Sophistication and sexuality at 70 with Christine Baranski | It's Been a Minute
If you ask people to describe Christine Baranski, one word rises to the top: sophisticated. That's no accident; the actress has spent a lifetime refining her image and her craft. For the past 13 years, Baranski has played Diane Lockhart, a savvy and assertive attorney on the CBS television series The Good Wife and its spin-off The Good Fight. And just like her character, Baranski is a trailblazer herself. With women making up only 3% of major TV characters 60 and over, she's carved out a path for other actresses to follow. In this episode, host Brittany Luse talks with Baranski about The Good Fight for women in Hollywood. You can follow us on Twitter @NPRITsBeenaMin and email us at [email protected].
