Patrick Swayze's widow Lisa Niemi is to give her first in-depth interview since the death of the actor to Oprah Winfrey.

The dancer will appear on Friday's Oprah in America for a one-to-one about her late husband, who lost his battle with cancer in September.

Niemi, who was married to Swayze for 34 years, co-wrote biography The Time of My Life with Swayze before his death.

She made her first public appearance since the Dirty Dancing star's death on Tuesday at the Women's Conference 2009 in Long Beach, California.
