Former President Herbert Hoover died 55 years ago this week. His name forever linked to the stock market crash of 1929, and the Great Depression that followed. As Mo Rocca found out, there's a case to be made that THE REAL HERBERT HOOVER was a far better man than the caricature. In an interview with Lee Cowan, Hollywood legends Martin Scorsese, Al Pacino, and Robert DeNiro talk about their new film, "The Irishman," about a hit man for a Philadelphia crime family and the fate of Teamsters Union president Jimmy Hoffa. Martha Teichner maps the remarkable life path of Harriet Tubman.
