I wonder when she started to become afraid of live performance, since she started as a band singer which included lots of traveling on the road to one live concert after another.

Apparently she always hated flying and never liked the strain of traveling for the band gigs. I find the same thing interesting about Streisand--both of them women whose careers were based on their live performances. Happily, Streisand has come back for the occasional live tour, but Doris Day never did. Our loss. I would have loved to have seen her on stage in anything! (My Dad saw her sing with Les Brown and became a lifelong fan of Ms. Day's after that.)
