TL;DR

Barbra Streisand recalls meeting President John F. Kennedy at the 1963 White House Correspondents' Dinner in her new memoir. Despite being asked not to request an autograph, Streisand couldn't resist and handed Kennedy a card to sign, calling him a doll. She later lost the signature and never had another chance to meet him as he was assassinated six months later. Streisand's memoir, "My Name Is Barbra," was released on November 7th.
