AI said Greta Van Susteren was at the top of her high school class. Greta knew that was not the whole story, so she invited longtime friend Kathryn Frawley onto “Greta Wire” to reveal what really happened. Greta and Kathryn revisit the day they slipped off their Catholic school campus and headed to a nearby 7-Eleven, only to learn that a car full of nuns had pulled into the parking lot. Their solution? Hide behind the beer cases. The friends recall being caught, suspended and marched back through school as the administrators tried to determine who was responsible. They also discuss strict teachers, bad report cards, classroom cheating, the mysterious “permanent record” and why Greta believes young people should have the opportunity to recover from youthful mistakes. Later, Kathryn reflects on her successful Broadway career, including work on “The Lion King,” “Rent” and “My Fair Lady,” and with major names such as Rex Harrison, Richard Burton and Katharine Hepburn. She also shares the extraordinary story of breaking her neck in a freak accident, undergoing surgery at Columbia Presbyterian and eventually regaining the ability to walk and drive.
