Barbara Walters: Trailblazing US news anchor dies aged 93
Pioneering US TV broadcaster Barbara Walters has died aged 93 after a career spanning half a century.
In 1976, she became The First US female network news anchor when she joined Abc News .
Walters - Born in Boston at the outset of The Great Depression in 1929 - won 12 Emmy awards.
As well as every US president from Richard Nixon to Donald Trump , she interviewed everyone from Cuba's Fidel Castro to Russia's Vladimir Putin .
" Barbara Walters Passed Away peacefully in her home surrounded by loved ones, " said publicist Cindi Berger in a statement on Friday Night .
" She lived her life with No Regrets . She was a trailblazer not only for female journalists, but for all women. "
The showbusiness booking agent's daughter began her career in journalism in 1961 with NBC, where she became a segment producer of women's interest stories.
She rose through the ranks of the male-dominated industry to make history in 1974 by becoming The First female co-host of a US news programme, on NBC's morning-time Today Show.
When she broke the Glass Ceiling again by becoming The First female network news anchor, on ABC's evening bulletin, her unprecedented $1m salary made her a media superstar.
" I have been blessed with A Life I never expected, " Walters said back in 2000 as she received a Lifetime Achievement Award from The National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences.
