[N] Carly Simon has been a consistently creative force in pop music since 1971.
She's recorded over a hundred of her own songs and has sold over six million records, hit after hit.
Despite her celebrity status, she remains a very private person.
She's married to fellow singer James Taylor and they have two children.
Tonight is her first prime time TV appearance in over five years,
so we thought we might try something a little unusual.
These three people are Larry Rivers, Andy Warhol and Marisol,
three of the world's most innovative and challenging contemporary artists.
