The Broadway Star Remembers Her Dear Friends After Their Passings
James Brolin and Barbra Streisand’s anniversary comes just days after the Broadway star lost a dear friend.
Music recording legend Clive Davis passed away on June 22, 2026, at 94. Like many other celebrities, Streisand penned a sweet tribute in his memory.
“In the early 1970s, the times they were a’changin’…socially, politically, and of course, musically,” Streisand shared on Instagram in June. “As the head of Columbia Records, Clive recognized these changes and encouraged me to meet with producer Richard Perry to record an album of songs by contemporary writers like Joni Mitchell, Randy Newman, Laura Nyro and Gordon Lightfoot. The album Stoney End opened new doors for me. I’m forever grateful for Clive’s vision and support. May he rest in peace and harmony! — Barbra”
It’s been a particularly challenging year for Streisand, who lost her friend Robert Redford last fall. In a touching tribute, Barbra Streisand remembered that they were polar opposites, but found a deep-seated sense of respect for one another.
Fans wish Barbra Streisand and James Brolin a lifetime of happiness as they celebrate their anniversary this week.
