Dyan Cannon On Stage, Screen & Life

Beth Lipoff/KCUR

Heaven can wait for Dyan Cannon. The actress still has plenty she’d like to do, including a guest spot at the New Theatre Restaurant, starting later this month. 

On Tuesday's Up to Date, we talk with the three-time Academy Award-nominated actress. She’s also known for her three-year marriage to actor Cary Grant, who was 33 years her senior.

We’ll discuss Cannon’s memoir about her turbulent life with Grant and take a look at what’s ahead for her on stage, screen and real life.
