Charles Schulz on Good Morning America 1987

Peanuts creator Charles Schulz's appearance on the long running morning program on ABC in May of 1987, to promote a latest (at the time) collection of his strips entitled "Dogs Don't Eat Dessert." Later that day, Schulz was to be inducted into the Cartoonists Hall Of Fame. A young(er) Charles Gibson asks the questions, as Schulz waxes about his craft. The master cartoonist, who drew Peanuts for almost 50 years, died in 2000. He is missed.

@Nen783 I loved and still love these comics. When he died a piece of my 8 year old self died. This was my first look at death and how it has an effect on people. He will forever be a hero of mine. RIP Mr. Schulz

I feel so emotional watching this... This comic is so important to me, so inspiring in my daily life... I remember when I heard Mr. Schulz died, I felt terribly sad. He's one of those people I wish I could have met to say 'Thank you for your work'. Also, I love this interview. The interviewer seems so nice and full of respect, we do not get to see such interviews nowadays...

"Can love go unrequited for *so* many years?"

"I'm an authority."
