On this day, August 20, in 1918, Jacqueline Susann was born in Philadelphia, PA. An actress who appeared on Broadway and on television, it was her novels that brought her success, including Valley of the Dolls, which was one of the bestselling books in publishing history. Along with The Love Machine and Once is Not Enough, she was the first author to ever have three consecutive works at the #1 spot on the New York Times bestselling list.
