Ronstadt has deep roots in that scene an early backing band eventually morphed into the Eagles. Plenty of compatriots in the 1970s Los Angeles music scene were happy to talk, most notably J.D. Her participation was minimal, aside from narrating stories about her early life, including her Mexican heritage and family's musical background, and a key final scene. Ronstadt hasn't been interested in cooperating with documentaries in the past but admired a film that Epstein had made about pioneering gay politician Harvey Milk. It's not charity work biographies have done well for CNN's film division, most notably "RBG" about Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and others are in the works on Anthony Bourdain and Julia Child. "She was iconic in my life," said Entelis, who is in charge of CNN Films, and therefore, in position to green light the Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman documentary. She also had an admirer in Amy Entelis, an executive at CNN. I like some of it and don't like most of it. The recent recognition is "lovely, you know. I never took that into consideration," she said. Her last album, a collaboration with Cajun singer Ann Savoy that Ronstadt considers one of her best, was released in 2006. She now lives a quiet life in the San Francisco area, her singing voice stilled by Parkinson's Disease. Despite the fear of record company executives, many of the projects did quite well.

When it was Ronstadt's turn to speak, the 73-year-old retired singer tartly answered the question and said it would be "when he stops enabling Donald Trump." I didn't want her to stand up there by herself."ĭuring his remarks, Pompeo referenced a Ronstadt hit, "When Will I Be Loved," saying he wondered when he'd be loved. "I just wanted to say that I was in solidarity with her. "Half the room applauded and the other half sat in silence," Ronstadt recalled. The actress had remarked about living in an era where the idea of truth was being challenged, Ronstadt said. Ronstadt said she hadn't planned to mention the Trump administration but did so to show support for fellow honoree Sally Field. Ronstadt drew attention this month for a comment at a dinner for Kennedy honorees hosted by the State Department and Secretary Mike Pompeo.
