Sidney Sheldon dead at 89

Sidney Sheldon, author of many best-sellers and a few screenplays, died Tuesday of complications from pneumonia. Some of his better known screen plays are: “The Bachelor and the Bobby Soxer” (for which he won an Academy Award), “Easter Parade,” and “The Patty Duke Show.” Apparently, he still holds the record for “the world’s most translated author,” as his 18 novels have been translated into 71 languages. His books often featured strong women as characters. Perhaps this is why they remain so popular? His legions of fans will miss him.
