Randi Kaye was again the guest anchor for AC360 this evening so will continue with our vintage Cooper family Christmas cards and related photos. Tonight we're sharing
the Cooper family Christmas card from 1968 when Anderson was 18 months old.
Here's another picture from that year, this time it's with Gloria, Wyatt and their sons in front of the family Christmas tree.
The iconic Gloria Vanderbilt swan is in the background of the Cooper families 1968 Christmas card and we found a similar swan in a McCall's home fashion book published in Spring 1967 entitled "Gloria Vanderbilt Designs For Your Home"
Anderson Cooper and Kathy Griffin Back to Co-Host CNN’s New
Year’s Eve Coverage
Dynamic
Duo Will be Live from Times Square Beginning at 10 p.m. ET
Anderson
Cooper and Kathy
Griffin are back to co-host CNN’s coverage of the New Year’s Eve
celebrations on Monday, Dec. 31, from 10 p.m. to 1:00 a.m. (ET). Bringing back
their fun and unpredictable New Year’s Eve countdown program for the 6th
consecutive year, Cooper and Griffin
will ring in the new year live from NYC’s Time Square for CNN’s “New Year’s Eve
Live with Anderson Cooper and Kathy Griffin.”
“As always, I
await New Year’s Eve with Kathy Griffin with grave reservations and tremendous
fear, and I want to apologize in advance to anyone she may
offend/assault/attempt to kiss” said Cooper.
“I
don’t know what Anderson
has been doing this past year. I assume he has been sitting, eating Bon Bons in
his mother’s apartment watching reality TV, while I was helping spread
democracy in Egypt or Syria or whichever” said Griffin. “Oh, and did I mention
we’re giving away puppies at midnight?”
CNN
correspondents will provide reports from celebrations across the country and
around the world. Isha Sesay will join Cooper and Griffin
from the crowds in Times Square.
Correspondents John Zarrella and Gary Tuchman are on opposite
ends of the East Coast, with Zarrella counting down from Key
West, Florida and Tuchman from Eastport, Maine.
At
12:30 a.m (ET), Anderson and Kathy will hand off to CNN’s Brooke Baldwin at
Jackson Square in New Orleans, Louisiana and HLN’s Susan Hendricks at
the Hard Rock Cafe in Nashville, Tennessee for the countdown to midnight,
Central time.

and fun. CNN correspondent Tom Foreman will be joined by Isha Sesay,
