Charlie Rose's Thursday, June 10, 2010 conversation with Doris Buffett

CHARLIE ROSE: Doris Buffett is here. She is the older sister of
Warren Buffett. Like her brother, she plans on donating her entire fortune
to philanthropy, but unlike Warren, she plays a hands-on role in the day-
to-day activities of her foundation.

In the past 15 years, she’s given away more than $100 million, much of
it in small, personal donations amounting to less than $10,000 each. She
is now the subject of a new biography called "Giving it All Away: The Doris
Buffett Story" written by Michael Zitz and includes a forward by Warren.

I am pleased to have Doris Buffett at the table for the first time.
Welcome.
