Susan asked Susan Page:

I work at a library and a patron came in today telling me that you plagiarized your Barbara Walters book from Barbara Walter's Memoir "Audition". Can you explained passages that are word for word in both books? Thank you.

Susan Page Susan — This is untrue and distressing. Every passage in my book that replicates passages from “Audition” appears in quotation marks and credited to that book. Barbara Walter’s memoir was an important source for me — but so were the 130 interviews I did with her friends, co-workers, rivals and others. Could you please ask your patron to provide an example? Thank you. Susan Page
