Drew Brees, Alicia Keys and Sean Penn share intimate tours of their homes and the places that mean the most to them with co-hosts Lara Logan and Charlie Rose on the next edition of the CBS News primetime special PERSON TO PERSON, to be broadcast Friday, Nov. 23 on the CBS Television Network (10:00 PM, ET/PT).

Brees, the Super Bowl-winning quarterback of the New Orleans Saints, and his wife Brittany take viewers inside their New Orleans home. Viewers will also meet the Brees’ three children. Just days before the release of her new CD, Alicia Keys brings cameras into her private recording studio, where she shares her new music and emotional stories being a wife and mother. Finally, Oscar-winning actor and director Sean Penn opens the gates to his home in Haiti to reveal a place where he may have found his most fulfilling role yet.

Set to be broadcast the night after Thanksgiving, PERSON TO PERSON will give these top newsmakers a chance to talk about what their most important places mean to them and to share life-changing stories with viewers.

PERSON TO PERSON was originally broadcast in 1953 with Edward R. Murrow as the host. The ground-breaking series gave viewers a peek into the home lives of such icons as John and Jacqueline Kennedy, Lauren Bacall and Humphrey Bogart. CBS News last broadcast PERSON TO PERSON in February 2012 with a special that included personal tours of the homes of George Clooney and Jon Bon Jovi, as well as the personal office of Warren Buffett.

Susan Zirinsky and Judy Tygard are the co-executive producers of PERSON TO PERSON.
