That session was the first time Streisand ever asserted herself as an artist, which also became her "first moment of inspiration." She has an older brother, Sheldon, and a half-sister, singer Roslyn Kind, from her mother's remarriage to Louis Kind in 1950.
As the pair celebrated 25 years of marriage, Streisand revealed that all she wants to do with the rest of her life is spend quality time with Brolin and their family. “I want to live life,” she told the BBC in an interview published in November 2023.

She was born 'Barbara,' but changed her name … sort of. "Well, I was 18 and I wanted to be unique, but I didn't want to change my name because that was too false. Let's see, if I take out the 'a,' it's still 'Barbara,' but it's unique."
(The Broadway star later wed actor James Brolin in 1998.) Over the years, Gould has worked as an actor (his first role was alongside his mom in Up the Sandbox) and a musician. He began singing onstage with his mom in 2012, and in 2017 told PEOPLE, "I honestly didn't know if I could do it.
