Stephen Colbert has done some pretty amazing interviews over the years. One of the best in recent memory are with children's book author Maurice Sendak. It showed the old man side of Sendak that is quick with the wit and not really scared of speaking his mind.
Yesterday when news broke of Sendak's passing those interviews were the first ...
