Dionne Warwick has led a remarkable life, and she's had a remarkable career, one that shows no signs of slowing down. One of the greatest artists of all time, Warwick has always been a master of winning over audiences.
In this episode of World Cafe, a conversation that spans Warwick's entire career: from her first standing ovation in front of her church at 6 years old to finding new fans nowadays on Twitter. A new documentary about her life called Dionne Warwick: Don't Make Me Over is currently out now on HBO Max, and recently, she released a new duet with Dolly Parton called "Peace Like A River." And even though there's currently no official announcement regarding new music, Warwick says she's working on a new record of gospel songs.
