BARBRA DEAREST: HER NAME IS BARBRA, HIS NAME IS . . .

The bio hasn’t slowed Streisand down, however. She’s doing a January special for HBO, based on the “Broadway” LP, and is negotiating to star in Mark Rydell’s much-postponed film “Nuts,” based on Tom Topor’s play about a woman trying to prove that she was sane when she committed a murder. Solters said nothing’s been signed, but it’s a likely go. Sources at Warner Bros. said “Nuts” will “very likely” start shooting early next year.
