Everybody's gotta start somewhere. For nineteen-year-old Barbra Streisand, that somewhere was New York's Bon Soir nightclub. In her memoir, 'My Name Is Barbra,' Streisand writes: 'The Bon Soir was a typical Greenwich Village nightclub ... small, dark, and you had to walk down a flight of stairs to get in.

'Barbra Streisand sings 'Second Hand Rose' in her 1965 TV special 'My Name Is Barbra': These specials bucked convention, and not just because in one of them Streisand soft-shoes with penguins.
